A Gala Like No Other!

We hope you will join us on Saturday, May 15th at the Rose Bowl to celebrate our club's 90th birthday. And when we say at the Rose Bowl, we really mean at the Rose Bowl. As in, on the field of the stadium! This isn't a fancy black tie event, and there will be no raffles or auctions. You get to wear comfortable, collegiate attire and enjoy good BBQ, the bar and dancing to our own Ross Jutsum's group of musicians. We may even have some of our own members sing a number or two! The evening will get started at 5:30 pm and we'll finish up at 9:30 pm.
