"Dine and Discover"
with Scott Abrams
September 2017

Scott Abrams, the District Director for Congressmen Brad Sherman's office enjoyed
lunch with and presented to 21 of our "Dine and Discover" members.
The talk illustrated how this congressional office provides services and assistance as well as representation to all.
No matter how diverse our audience was, his presentation was informative and enjoyable.

"LEGAL EAGLES"
|
LEGAL EAGLES STUDY GROUP
Are you Puzzled about what Legal Puzzlers Study Groups are all about?
Our group has been in existence for over ten years, meeting each month at a different member’s home. The hostess is responsible for providing the topic for discussion. Our format is constantly changing with the times. We may debate legal issues regarding the current government policies, discuss a supreme court case, watch a movie pertaining to a legal issue, or have a guest speaker. We become the best of what a jury should be.

Divas at 'For The Troops'

This becomes a tradition!
4 years in a row our study group "Day Time Divas" dedicates a day to make care packages for our troops.
These small contributions to our men and women who served and protect our country every day make everyone feel uplifted and this outing always gets the most attendance.
Every year we get letters from the organization with thank you notes from our soldiers serving all over the world.

Life and Times:
A Study Group to Pique Your Interest!
|
Life and Times
Life & Times is a great group of women who meet to discuss both notable women in history and topics of interest to all of us. Each month the person who is hosting the meeting does a short bio on a woman she admires, followed by a report on a topic of interest to her. Past topics have included women inventors, art history, women poets, stroke awareness, recycling, heart health, and Jews in China. Our presentations are followed by lively discussions. We avoid political and personal topics.
