Members and guests visiting before the meeting gets underway
 
Il Fornaio in Del Mar Plaza was the site of our second Community Outreach meeting for 2017. We had another great turnout, with several guests in attendance. Vickie Barks brought her colleagues from the League of Amazing Programmers, Jackie Arsenau and Becky Deller; Garrie Rhodes invited Alton Hitchcock, real estate agent and home brewer; and Carrington Kingsley, guest of Kit Leeger, returned for a second visit. John Winfield, editor of Fine magazine joined us, as did Linda Strangman, wife of member Walt Strangman. The meeting was a family affair for member Chad Brown, who brought his wife, Dana, and their two daughters, Ella and Maia, who were selling poinsettias on behalf of the Encinitas YMCA Dreamcatcher project, which raises funds so that needy families can access YMCA facilities and services.
