Co-Presidents’ Message for September 2024

Welcome back to SCCB-AAUW to all our returning members and a special welcome to our new members. Robbin and I are excited about this coming year and the plans we have for you to take part in. We are trying out some new ideas and procedures that we hope you will enjoy and we would like to hear from you about these

First of all, our new location! Our General Meetings will be in the VIP Room of the Outlets in San Clemente. This will be on the second floor with an elevator to help get us up there. Our meetings will start at 1P.M., on Fridays. Our contract stipulates that we cannot bring food into the room, all food in there has to be furnished from one of the restaurants in the Outlet Center and so we are suggesting that you meet with friends for lunch prior to the meeting.

Second, we are not having the Sea Breeze as our newsletter and will use Constant Contact instead. It will continue to be sent out weekly and will have the same information as the Sea Breeze but staggered throughout the month. For example, one week you might hear from Interest Groups and the next week Tech Trek. Monthly birthdays and sponsors’ ads will be included.

Thirdly, please remember the Shopping Extravaganza at the Outlets on Oct.12. This is a fundraiser for us and for many nonprofits in this area. We ask that you buy two tickets now and invite a friend to join you on the day of the event. This has been a very successful fundraiser for our Saddleback scholarship fund. If we sell 100 tickets AND get 100 people there on event day, we can split the profits of the day. As of August 30, ticket sales are increasing with BILY (Because I Love You) in the lead with 50 tickets sold!

1. Arts for All is having a good run at 10 tickets sold.

2. American Association of University Women (AAUW) is close behind with 9 tickets sold.

Let’s have a great showing this year!

I look forward to seeing you on September 28 at 1 P.M. in the VIP Room at the Outlets
