Happy June everyone.
The Summer season is here with days of Dads and Grads. So get out and do things and enjoy the great weather.
June is also the month for our Annual picnic at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. You can still buy tickets at the June Luncheon. Contact Joe Hernandez if you have any questions. Joe and all the volunteers always do a great job.
We had several guest again in May and introduced 4 new members. If we keep up that pace we will be in great shape. Thanks to all for the great effort.
As always, I encourage our new members to bring a guest for lunch and also get involved with activities, which is a great way to know more of your fellow members.
See you at the Lunch.

- Merry Mixers at the Elks Club in Walnut Creek: twice a month – 1st and 3th Friday of each month, live band, smaller dance floor but fun.
- Castle Rock Restaurant, Livermore: every Sunday and Tuesday night. Live band.
- Two Left Feet, Danville, every Sunday afternoon, DJ music, and nice dance floor.
