Decorated Gourd 

At the January meeting of the ALL 

Garden Club, we participated in a lively 

and fascinating slide show and presentation 

led by Larry Ragle, president of the 

California Bonsai Society. In addition to 

a demonstration of the creation and care 

of Bonsai, Mr. Ragle offered several suggestions 

as to the display of Bonsai. He is 

also involved in Suiseki, the art of arranging 

stones to suggest landscapes such 

as mountains and islands. Mr. Ragle’s 

presentation was preceded by a short business 

meeting and lunch at the Yacht Club 

followed. 

The February excursion will be our 

exciting Third Annual Diva Luncheon. 

In the regal manner of all true Divas, will 

eschew any and all business and meeting 

trivia and, instead, don our tiaras (everyone 

will be provided one) and assemble in 

our private dining room at Mc Kenna’s 

Creek in Long Beach. There, we will 

enjoy the food, company, and ambiance 

in a regal manner! 

The March meeting will feature Eric 

Olsen. His topic will be “What’s New 

in Gardening”, speaking especially to 

Sea-Crop, an organic fertilizers that feeds 

more plants with less product. He plans to 

present an easy-to-follow “show and tell” 

that will include a bonus use: what can it 

do for pets?

At the ALL Garden Club, we have a 

short, informational meeting, followed by 

a presentation by a local expert in some 

form of gardening. Every other month, 

we plan an excursion to a near-by garden, 

shop, park, or museum that features some 

aspect of gardening. Our next excursion 

will be in April, the Getty Villa in Malibu. 

Of course, in the world of gardening, 

there’s no end to the many, many 

topics and special interests available. In 

upcoming months, we’ll spend some time 

discovering new ways to display our love 

for all things growing with lectures and 

visits to local gardens and the myriad 

of beautifully landscaped sites which 

Southern California is so famous for. 

Our membership chair and VP, 

Linda Axel, is continuing a lovely, new 

practice initiated by Sally Cohen last 

year. Linda will present a rose (our club 

flower) to each new member as well as 

to the member who introduces someone 

to ALL. At the November meeting, we 

welcomed Linda Sackin to the group. She 

was sponsored by Marsha Hendler. 

As usual, we extend a warm invitation 

to any who would like to join us in 

these kinds of activities, or might just like 

to visit once to check us out. Linda Axel is 

membership chair; she can be reached at 

714-840-1940. Come on over!

Sea Isle Garden Club 

by Cindy Allen and Caron Mount 

Sea Isle Garden Club members at the Holiday Luncheon at SeaCliff Country Club on December 12th: Anne Blayden, Lucille Mascoli, Dorothy Ralphs, Loel 

Jones, Jan Nagele, Cindy Allen, Donna Davis, Mary Ann Brinket, Terry Hayden, Jackie Neil, Cathy Kelly, Carolyn Platt, Susan La Pittus, Carolyn Lloyd, Caron 

Mount, Diane Casey, and Marta O’Rourke. 

Wow! The Holidays were fi lled with 

fun times for Sea Isle Garden Club members. 

We celebrated the successes of our 

Edinger Parkway, a great accomplishment 

after the founding of our club ten years 

ago. On Wednesday, December 12th, 

members met at the SeaCliff Country 

Club for a brief meeting where President 

Mary Ann Brinket thanked Hospitality 

Chair Lucille Mascoli and her friend, 

Diane Casey, for organizing the use of 

the beautifully decorated Club and the 

wonderful Christmas luncheon. We all 

Let’s Get Traveling!! 

New 

Location 

on Argosy Ave 

complimented Carolyn Lloyd for her 

adorable snowman favors and thanked 

Mary Ann for the angel bookmark she 

gave to each guest. Members enjoyed our 

Traditional SIGC Holiday Program with 

an exciting mystery gift exchange. Both 

glittery and glamorous treasures were 

unwrapped, including a Santa Hat with a 

bright red scarf which was “stolen” a few 

times! We also had a yummy home-made 

cookie exchange.

Wednesday, January 9, 2013, members

were fascinated by guest speaker Nancy 

Hunyadi, who has created a Culinary 

Academy, was a Chef instructor, a caterer, 

and a National Certified Teacher of 

Culinary Arts. Nancy showed us ways 

to cook with herbs, beautify our table 

settings, and shared entertaining tips. 

Carolyn Platt, our program chair, was 

fore thoughtful in December by asking 

us about topics we were most interested, 

and Nancy came through splendidly with 

a program just for us. 

After speaking with Carolyn, Nancy 

planned something that she had never 

done for a club presentation. She would 

usually talk, demonstrate something, and 

answer questions but since we are a smaller 

club, she felt she would like to cater our 

lunch while demonstrating and incorporating 

tips on entertaining, garnishing 

purchased foods and using special herbs. 

So she prepared an appetizer, a salad, and 

a dessert for us to enjoy. As promised it 

was fun and delicious, as well as informative. 

Each of us went home enthused to 

begin the 2013 entertainment year. 

Please be sure to mark your calendars 

for our upcoming Wednesday February 

13th meeting at the SeaGate Clubhouse. 

Launa Gould, Orange County District 

Director of the California Garden Clubs, 

Inc. will speak about how important each 

Garden Club is to the District, State and 

National Garden Clubs. She will also 

instruct us on how to make a succulent 

wreath arrangement, now that so many 

of us are incorporating cactus in our 

gardens. 

Please contact VP of Membership, 

Cindy Allen, at 310-245-8702 for information 

on becoming a member of the Sea 

Isle Garden Club.

FINS 

by Barbara Devlin 

December 6th marked our annual 

gift exchange among about twenty five 

members at Bill and Rita Collin’s house. 

Bill played the part of “Jeeves” and carried 

appetizers, desserts, presents, coats etc. 

for all the ladies. Placed at the door were 

boxes to fi ll with unwrapped gifts for the 

children at Interval House. There was no 

problem in fi lling the boxes by the end of 

the evening. Appetizers and desserts were 

brought by members, as well as unlabeled, 

wrapped gifts to exchange with two steals 

allowed. Pat Johnson stole a musical hat 

from Maggie Flavia, then Maggie picked 

a new wrapped gift that had the same hat 

in it! Another popular gift that exchanged 

hands were the Santa Morrocas, stolen 

twice. One of the most unusual gifts 

brought was a glass ornament with a live 

succulent within, personally made by 

Barbara Simone. We are all looking forward 

to more times together in the new 

year. 

Daytime Gourmet’s Christmas 

Luncheon was held at the home of 

Barbara Devlin with Mary Berge as 

Hostess of the day. Mary Berge prepared a 

wonderful menu for members to cook and 

enjoy starting with Champagne Peach 

Bellini which was thoroughly enjoyed 

even by those members who usually don’t 

like Champagne. Appetizers were Cheese 

Fondue prepared by Loretta Maiorana 

and Gloria Beckstrom and “Stuffed Pigs 

in Blankets” rolled and prepared by 

Marian Galanis . While Marian was preparing 

the appetizers Mary Johnson was 

with her at the table making the salad of 

the day “Bibb Lettuce with Persimmons 

and candied pecans.” The salad was a bit 

hit with members as no one had ever had 

persimmons in a salad and they were delicious. 

The main entrée was Rack of Lamb 

prepared by June Ascolesi and Betty 

McCarthy. 

Pearl Holmes made the Gratin 

Potatoes and the Peas and Carrots. 

Dessert was a beautiful Yule Log with 

Ice Cream. (The Yule Log was made by 

Mary Berge at her home in Pescadero 

and she transported the entire grocery 

list when she came down to present her 

menu to the other members of Daytime 

Gourmet!) After lunch members enjoyed 

the Christmas Exchange in Barbara’s 

living room. Members bring food gifts to 

this exchange (many of them handmade, 

like cookies and Jams.)

Our Christmas Dinner Meeting 

was held at the lovely, spacious home of 

Virginia and Frank Buccella which was 

very well attended by our club. President 

George Graham thanked everyone 

for bringing the great food and our 

Hospitality Hosts, Barbara Hollaway and 

Delores Movius for the great job they did. 

Phil Lupton was a guest of Leigh 

Ross and his name was put forward to 

becoming a member of the Club.

spends much time every year putting this 

trip together for our club. Thanks to her. 

The second trip is to Beaver Creek 

Colorado, 2/3/13 to 2/10/13. George 

Graham trip chair has done a marvelous 

job of getting us into great accommodations 

at the Osprey Hotel. George 

reported he has 40+ skiers signed up for 

this beautiful trip. 

Our third trip has been planned by 

June and Paul Lange to Banff/Lake louise, 

3/2/13 to 3/9/13. More than twenty have 

signed up for this exciting trip to Canada, 

The Langes are great contributors of time 

and energy to our Ski Club.

As the Amigos de Bolsa Chica enters 

its 37th year of existence, the organization 

looks forward to continuing its long tradition 

of making visits to the Bolsa Chica 

Wetland informative and rewarding experiences 

for young and old. Following that 

line, the organization launched a number 

of new projects in 2012. It designed and 

had built two new bulletin boards to greet 

visitors arriving at the north and south 

parking lots. The structures feature a large, 

colorful trail map that details many of the 

points of interest of the wetland. The map 

takes the place of the long outdated and 

faded maps on the original kiosks that are

destined for removal in the near future. 

To make visits more meaningful to 

youngsters, the Amigos have developed 

a new educational program with the 

theme, “It’s All Connected”. Based on 

the well-known ecological principle that 

every ecosystem is connected to every 

other ecosystem, the program is devised 

to demonstrate to young visitors that 

the wetland is not an isolated place but 

is interconnected with what happens in 

every other adjacent place, like the ocean. 

Nutrients that are released when wetland 

plants and animals die and disintegrate, 

besides feeding wetland plants and animals, 

are washed out to sea to nourish 

other life. In exchange, many fi sh species 

that are found in the ocean turn to 

wetlands for a variety of necessities such 

as spawning grounds, nurseries for their 

young, feeding and escaping predators. In 

our new program, young visitors will be 

conducting hands-on studies of the wetland, 

including surveys of water quality 

and the wetland’s plankton communities. 

Another project that is aimed primarily 

at young visitors to Bolsa Chica, 

although adults can participate as well, 

is the Bolsa Chica Coastal Wetlander 

program. The Amigos have published 

a richly illustrated activity book that is 

crammed full of puzzles, quizzes, stories 

and interesting facts about Bolsa Chica. 

Anyone who turns in a book with completed 

questions will be designated an 

official Bolsa Chica Coastal Wetlander 

and presented with a certificate and colorful 

jacket patch. 

Fund raising is a full time activity 

with all non-profits and the Amigos is 

no exception. Besides the highly successful 

luncheon at Seacliff Country Club 

earlier in the year, the organization held 

special nights at a number of restaurants 

throughout Huntington Beach. But the 

idea that attracted the most attention was 

succulent-decorated pumpkins. Similar 

popular holiday pieces were seen at Rogers 

Gardens and other upscale stores. A team 

of dedicated Amigos volunteers produced 

over 160 decorated pumpkins between 

Halloween and Christmas, a number that 

quickly sold out. With a little TLC, the 

pumpkins should last six months or more. 

The Bolsa Chica Wetland is a special 

place along the Southern California coast. 

Its value is incalculable in so many ways. 

Let’s protect and preserve it for generations 

to come by treating it like one of our 

most treasured personal possessions.

Assistant League ® Huntington Beach 

by Susan Bjork 

From left: Linda Cassidy, Jean Worden, Santa, Maryann Boryszewski, and Lynn Wilhelm. 

During the fall, our Operation School 

Bell “Target Night” team hosts hundreds 

of children at the local Huntington 

Beach (Adams & Brookhurst.) and 

Westminster Mall Target stores. The 

children, who are referred by 57 schools 

across the Huntington Beach, Ocean 

View, Fountain Valley and Westminster 

districts, are given the opportunity to shop 

for age appropriate school clothes. During 

the months of September, October, and 

November, a total of 1,267 elementary, 

middle school and homeless high school 

children shopped for new clothes and 

were given Payless shoe cards. Two more 

sessions will be held at the end of January 

to reach the goal of clothing 1,600 

students this school year. This program 

results in hundreds of children with a 

greater sense of self-esteem. And, because 

they feel better about going to school, 

they have a better learning experience. 

Several Assistance League members 

from the Harbour attended the annual 

Holiday Party on December 2nd at 

Meadowlark Golf Club. Everyone had 

a great time with dinner, dancing, and 

pictures with Santa among the festivities. 

On December 20th, our Assisteens 

made many children of single parents very 

happy. They helped over 50 children pick 

out and wrap presents for their parents. 

Over 120 presents were donated for the 

party by Assistance League Huntington 

Beach chapter members, DreamCatchers 

and Assisteens. This made these children 

and their parent’s Christmas a merrier 

one. 

“Treasures by the Sea 2013” Fundraiser: 

Plans are well underway for the 

annual fundraiser on Saturday, April 

6th at the Hyatt Regency in Huntington 

Beach. Last year our philanthropic 

programs benefited from our fundraiser 

proceeds to the tune of $145,000. If 

you would like to attend our fundraiser, 

you will not only enjoy a fabulous silent 

auction, luncheon, fashion show and live 

auction, you will also be supporting our 

many philanthropic programs. 

If you would like to receive an 

invitation, or make a donation to the 

fundraiser, please send an email request 

to noragreenwood@gmail.com. 

This fall, we welcomed over 30 new

Seated: Bett Walton, Judy Grieg. Adeline Mah not shown 

Winners of the “Capone” dress for the Flying Dutchman meeting November 5 

were Leigh Ross, dressed as a gangster, and Dorothy Ralphs as a fl apper. 

The Flying Dutchman Chapter of 

the Segerstrom Center for the Arts held 

the November meeting at the Capone’s 

Cuchina restaurant in Huntington 

Beach. The group was asked to dress in 

the attire common in the Capone era. 

A judging for the most clever went to 

Leigh Ross who came in pistol-packing 

gangster style complete with holsters and 

cigar (unlit). Dorothy Ralphs claimed the 

women’s division with her complete shimmering 

flapper outfit. Lots of fun was had 

by all and they were entertained with a 

charteuse who sang songs of the ‘40’s and 

‘50’s. A moment of silence was given to 

honor the passing of Jean Evans, one of 

the founders of the group. 

The membership is full after the 

addition of 5 couples. Bobbitt Williams, 

chairman, introduced Willie and Judy 

Grieg, Adeline and Robert Mah, Eunice 

and Gil Fujimoto, Bett and Jim Walton. 

John Mitchell and Gail LaCorazza were 

unable to attend. 

The next meeting was a brunch at 

the home of Bobbitt and Bill Williams in 

their Pelican Point home January 13. It 

was fun to discuss all the events that have 

transpired over the holidays and fi nally to 

relax after 4 hectic weeks of parties, shopping, 

and the Cruise of Lights.

27, at the Santa Ana Country Club. The 

$100,000 proceeds will fund the American 

Cancer Society’s lifesaving research, 

programs, advocacy and services. To date, 

the volunteer members of the OC Barons’ 

League have raised nearly $5 million in 

the fight against cancer. 

The theme was “Rock ‘n Roll for 

the Cure.” Guests dressed in fi fties garb 

and danced to Danny Memphis & the 

Extraordinaires. They dined on fifties 

comfort food, pork chops, macaroni and 

cheese and chocolate cake. The event 

was co-chaired by Jeanie Gibson and 

Karyn Sanderson. Silent and live auction 

which included a one week stay in Kauai, 

a Montana escape for four nights and 

five days, a chocolate tasting and truffle 

making event for eight people, special 

dinner for 8 with Cathy Thomas of the 

OC Register and trips to Palm Desert. 

“My father passed away from cancer 

at the age of 35, when I was only 7,” said 

Jeanie Gibson co-chair of the OC Baron’s 

Ball. Cancer not only took away his life, 

but also robbed me of my life with him. 

International Order of the Blue Gavel 

by LaVon Plumlee, District Director 

That is why I have been involved with 

the OC Baron’s for 14 years and I am 

committed to helping to find a cure for 

cancer.” 

This year, it is estimated that 11,630 

people in Orange County will hear the 

words: “You have cancer,” nearly 144,035 

statewide. Because of breakthroughs in 

research and cancer education, more 

than 63% of them will live high quality 

lives for more than five years past their 

diagnosis. But we want to exceed survival 

past diagnosis to further support research, 

patient services, advocacy and educational 

programs for OC families. Last year, 

the American Cancer Society, which 

funded the research that discovered the 

mammogram, Pap smear and Tamoxifin, 

helped more than 3,281 local patients with 

free transportation for treatments, wigs, 

emotional support, resource referrals, 

vital information, and other necessities. 

Nationally, the Society has invested more 

than $3.4 billion in cancer research, 

including funding 44 Nobel Laureates 

and investing $63.5 million last year in 

California-based research programs.

California State Lands Commission’s (CSLC) “New Tax” 

by Frank Singer 

December was an interesting 

month, especially for our friends in 

Newport Beach. Their city council saw 

the affect SB 152 had on Huntington 

Harbour, so they took this as a blueprint 

to raise additional revenue. Up till 

now Newport Beach was charging each 

dock owner $100 per year. Empowered 

by SB 152 the council voted to charge 

by dock footprint which will increase 

annual fees from a few hundred to a few 

thousand dollars. There was an uproar 

and a “Stop the Dock Tax” group was 

formed (sound familiar?). As a starter 

many boycotted the Christmas parade. 

The council recognized SB 152 didn’t 

apply to them but still used it as their 

basis. Another contrast with us is all 

money collected by Newport Beach gets 

spent on harbor improvements unlike 

here in Huntington Harbour where our 

money goes to the State general fund. 

Newport Beach’s attorney Kristine 

Thagard is in corroboration with our 

attorney Ron Zumbrun. 

After our September court appearance 

we amended our complaint to 

enhance our position against the Lands 

Commission as suggested by the judge. 

Naturally the Lands Commission 

Demurred again requiring another 

court date on January 16 by the same 

judge who heard our original complaint. 

Those of you who would like to 

attend the hearing it will be at the Santa 

Ana court house, 700 Civic Center 

Drive West, Santa Ana, Dept. C-15 

before Judge Francisco Firmat at 3:00 

pm. I invite all who can to attend. It 

should be very informative. Feel free to 

contact me for additional information. 

And now for a “Commercial”. We 

desperately need donations for our legal 

fund. Since not only the few hundred 

property owners on the main and channels 

are being affected by SB 152, all 

4000 HH residents will be affected by 

lowering property values, so everyone 

in the Harbour should donate to our 

fund. 

Fighting the State costs lots of 

money, probably as much as $200,000 

over the next couple of years. I’ve 

asked everyone to make an ANNUAL 

contribution of a few hundred dollars. 

So far about 100 of you have donated 

around $55,000 and we have spent over 

$65,000. It’s a new year so I am pleading 

for all of you to make your 2013 

contribution. I am particularly asking 

the 4,000 property owners in HH to 

donate something, even a hundred dollars 

or so. Imagine if all 4,000 Harbour 

residents made one small $50 donation 

we would have all the money we need. 

EVERYONE IN HUNTINGTON 

HARBOUR IS AFFECTED! 

Talk to your neighbors, we need 

your support (Read $$$). Please contribute 

to our legal fund in one of two 

ways. Use our website: www.hbpropertyowners.com 

or by check: 

Make check payable to: “Zumbrun 

Law Firm Client Trust Account” and 

mail to: Ron Zumbrun, 47 Robert 

Court East, Arcata, CA 95521. In the 

memo section add: “Huntington Beach 

Property Owners”. All contributions 

are confidential. If we win, we get back 

legal fees and any of the new fees you 

paid the State.

The Bolsa Chica Land Trust 

by Kim Kolpin, Executive Director, the Bolsa Chica Land Trust 

Bolsa Chica Land Trust docents, picture taken by Mr. Ron Krasnitz. 

Ten years ago, the Bolsa Chica Land 

Trust organized a program to teach 3rd 

grade students about the ecology and history 

of Bolsa Chica. In the California 3rd 

grade science curriculum children learn 

about the different biomes of our planet, 

with wetland ecology being one that 

here at Bolsa Chica we can experience in 

person. 

Each year 2,000 students come 

through the Miracles of the Marsh program. 

As a parent, my two older children 

remember their Miracles experience, and 

my youngest will participate with his 

classmates this January. It is no secret that 

our schools need help, and that field trips 

are amongst the first things to be cut from 

the strained budget. Reading about how 

water flows through a wetland, seeing a 

picture of a bird, is a one dimensional 

classroom experience. Being able to break 

away from the books and walk amongst 

that which they are learning about, adds 

a very special element to a student’s 

understanding. Standing on our walk 

bridge looking at a flock of white pelicans 

and being able to listen to the terns while 

watching them dive for fish is a much 

deeper experience. 

Our educational mission is very 

important. The more people understand 

why Bolsa Chica and wetlands like it are 

crucial, the more likely they will be to help 

save these areas. So many children today 

do not get out into nature; so many adults 

do not either. To assist the schools with 

their curriculum, the Land Trust does 

not charge for our Miracles program, and 

helps Title 1 schools with the costs for the 

school buses. Our members and grantors 

value both the environment and education 

and we aim to give the best program 

VIMS (Volunteers in Multiple Sclerosis) 

by Mim Strickler 

we can to the most students possible. 

Boeing and Southern California Edison 

are two of our partners in bringing this 

program to over 15,000 students over the 

past decade, and we are grateful for their 

continued support. 

The Bolsa Chica Land Trust’s volunteer 

docents are an amazing group of 

organized and well trained individuals. 

They visit the classrooms to give presentations 

and workbooks to the classes. They 

lead students on a two hour tour of the 

Reserve, covering wetland ecology, water 

conservation, and the its history. 

We always need more docents so that 

we never have to turn away a school. If 

you are interested, please call me at Bolsa 

Chica Land Trust, (714) 846-1001 or 

email me at BCLandTrust@verizon.net. 

Our focus in 2013 is to improve this 

wonderful program by better equipping 

our docents so that they can capture the 

minds and imaginations of 2000 eager 

8 year olds. If you would like to make a 

donation towards better equipment for 

the Miracles program, you can do so at 

our website www.BolsaChicaLandTrust. 

org or you can send a check to us at 5200 

Warner Avenue, Suite 108, Huntington 

Beach, CA 92649. All donations to our 

non-profit are tax deductible and greatly 

appreciated. Together, we can better 

educate the next generation to the significance 

of our costal natural resources. 

VIMS has had an unusually successful 

year just past. Over $20,000 was 

raised for the Bob Webster Scholarship 

Fund which goes to those students in 

our community with MS who need help 

in funding their schooling. Beyond the 

physical and emotional impact, the cost 

of living with MS is estimated at $69,000 

per year, per person. Our group is 

dedicated to helping curb these costs and 

makes dreams possible. 

Special thanks go to major donors 

Don and Ellen Goodwin, Rob and Julie 

Webster and Carol Webster. 

Plans are now underway for several 

social and fund raising events to be 

held this year. If you are willing to host 

an event in your home please contact 

Charmaine Rood at 714-840-5006. She 

would also appreciate having any baskets 

you may have received and would like to 

return to VIMS.

Cathy Thomas Cooks – Fancy Salt on Sweets, Oh My 

by Cathy Thomas, O.C. Register Food Columnist and Author 

Fleur de Sel Caramels 

Remember when salt meant plain old 

salt, poured from a blue cylindrical clad 

with a young girl set against a bright blue 

label? Holding an umbrella, that poster 

gal promised that when it rained, the salt 

would pour. Bless her heart. 

Now in the marketplace, there are 

so many specialty sea salts, it’s hard to 

keep up: there are myriad hues of coarsegrained 

salt, sourced around the globe. 

Most often these “finishing” salts are 

sprinkled on dishes at the last minute, 

rather than added during a long cooking 

process. Scattered on the surface, the texture 

and flavor of these fancy salts dance 

on tongue; often they give molars a noisy 

treat with a welcoming crunch. 

The first time I tasted one of Michael 

Recchiuti’s caramels at the Ferry Building 

in San Francisco, my perception of what 

constitutes great candy hit a new level. 

The caramel itself sang of rich cream, 

good butter and Tahitian vanilla. Good, 

yes, but the velvety chocolate coating was 

adorned with fine crystals of fleur de sel 

(“flower of salt’’). 

The salt gave the treat irresistible 

allure. It’s an expensive sea salt that is 

hand-harvested from salt ponds on sunny 

days in northwestern and southwestern 

France. It offered a just- right saltiness, 

with a briny, slight mineral-like quality. 

And its subtle crunchy texture added 

interest as well. Here’s my version: 

Fleur de Sel Caramels 

Yield: About 40 caramels 

About 1 teaspoon canola oil 

1 cup heavy whipping cream 

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut 

into pieces; see cook’s notes 

1 teaspoon fleur de sel 

1 1/2 cups sugar 

1/4 cup light corn syrup 

1/4 cup water 

14 

Optional: Chocolate-nut coating: 

8 ounces coating chocolate, 

such as Dolci Frutta (sold next 

to berries in supermarkets) 

1 to 2 teaspoon finely chopped 

pistachios or walnuts 

Pinch finely ground fleur de sel 

Cook’s notes: It’s best to use a 

European-style butter that contains less 

moisture and higher butterfat. Land 

O’Lakes makes one that is sold in most 

supermarkets. Fleur de sel is a special sea 

salt sold at culinary specialty shops such 

as Sur La Table and Williams-Sonoma, as 

well as supermarkets that stock specialty 

items. If desired, substitute kosher salt. 

For wax paper to wrap candies, I use 

waxed bakery tissues from Smart & Final. 

They are in a pull-out box like facial tissues 

and are 10 3/4 by 6 inches. I cut them 

in half and place the waxed side next to 

candy. 

1. Line bottom and sides of 8-inch 

square baking dish with parchment paper, 

then lightly brush parchment with oil. Set 

aside. In small saucepan, combine cream, 

butter and fleur de sel. Bring to boil on 

medium-high heat. Remove from heat 

and set aside. 

2. In heavy, 3- to 4-quart saucepan, 

combine sugar, corn syrup and water. 

Bring to boil on medium-high heat, stirring 

until sugar dissolves. Boil, without 

stirring but occasionally gently swirling 

pan, until mixture is light golden caramel. 

4. Carefully stir in cream mixture 

(mixture will bubble up) and simmer, 

stirring frequently, until caramel registers 

248 degrees on candy thermometer, about 

10 to 15 minutes. Pour into baking pan 

and cool 2 hours. Cut into 1-inch pieces 

with sharp knife. Wrap in 4-inch squares 

of wax paper, twisting 2 ends to enclose 

(see cook’s notes). Or, if desired, coat one 

end in melted chocolate and place on wax 

paper for chocolate to harden. Sprinkle 

with a tiny bit of salt and/or finely 

chopped nuts, if desired.

Huntington Harbour Philharmonic Committee 

by Eva Kilgore 

Chairmen Lolly McHardy and Donna Gray join Mayor Connie Broadman and assemblyman Allan 

Mansoor in a ribbon cutting ceremony honoring HHPC’s 50th anniversary 

We gave out funds to grateful 

principals at Chili Night, received a 

proclamation from the County of Orange 

for 50 stellar years of the Boat Parade, 

and everyone agrees, we’re up for 50 more 

years of bringing music to the children of 

Orange County! 

How exciting! All of Huntington 

Harbour came together to celebrate 

the 50 year anniversary of the HHPC. 

Thousands of volunteer hours, thousands 

of lights, throngs of boat parade watchers, 

and as many Cruise of Lights passengers 

made this celebration one to remember. 

We presented reinvestment monies 

to local principals at a lovely chili dinner 

at the Huntington Harbour Yacht Club, 

answered phones, ushered passengers onto 

and off boats, loaded and unloaded buses, 

took care of traffic at the Huntington 

Harbour Mall, and helped wherever and 

whenever we could. The HHPC is looking 

forward to another 50 years of bringing 

music to our children. For information: 

714-846-7542. 

It is virtually impossible to thank 

everyone, but we are giving it a try! 

Please know that each and every one of 

our Harbour residents is important in 

the continuation of the HHPC’s effort to 

raise funds for children’s music programs.

Cardiac robotic surgery. Our specialty. 

When it comes to the advantages of robotic heart surgery over 

traditional heart surgery, there’s more than meets the eye. 

Performed through a few tiny openings instead of the foot-long 

incision to open the chest, this revolutionary procedure means 

fewer complications, less discomfort, and faster recoveries.* Very 

few hospitals have the depth of clinical experience in this advanced 

technology. The MemorialCare Heart & Vascular Institute at Long 

Beach Memorial and Orange Coast Memorial has one of the nation’s 

top cardiac robotic surgeons, Dr. Daniel Bethencourt, leading our 

team. If you are considering cardiac surgery, consider the experts.

HHPC: Sandpipers 

by Cindy Allen 

Sandpiper President Debbie Edwards, our wonderful Sandpiper members and 

guests at Herb and Mary Lundin’s home on December 14th. 

Our gracious hosts Herb and Mary Lundin at the December 14th annual 

Holiday and After Work Party. 

December Events 

Sandpipers were very busy in the 

month of December helping to make the 

50th Annual Cruise of Lights a success. 

On Friday, December 14th, the annual 

Holiday and After Work Party was held 

at Mary and Herb Lundin’s beautiful 

waterfront home. Despite some drizzle, 

the party was very festive. 

Our HHPC Sandpipers Cruise 

of Lights Work Nights were Saturday, 

December 15th and Thursday, December 

20th. Sandpipers helped people board 

buses and boats for an enjoyable time 

viewing the holiday lights. 

Being one of the hardest working 

groups, we also had a dozen members 

volunteer to work an extra night for 

the Cruise of Lights Chili Dinner at 

the Huntington Harbour Yacht Club 

December 17th. Checks were presented 

to Orange County educators for music 

education programs. It was a rewarding 

event as it lets us see firsthand how our 

donations are helping the schools. 

January 2013 Meeting 

The January 17th meeting was at 

the Seal Beach home of Nicole Stewart.

HHPC: Marina Windjammers

HHPC: Admiralty 

by Lora Anderson 

Julie Metz (second from right) showing members how to properly hold a violin and play. 

Admiralty welcomes new member Barbara Alcott. 

Happy New Year to everyone! We are 

all looking forward to a fabulous 2013. 

To recap the last couple of months 

of activity I need to start by saying on 

behalf of our wonderful president, Susie 

Sampson, many thanks to all the Marina 

Windjammers for their hard work on 

the boat parade and Cruise of Lights®. 

Hats off to our own Margie Bogart 

for chairing the HHPC Boat Parade 

Committee and to Joanne Fernbach, her 

assistant. Kathy Bunch was in charge of 

home and boat décor for the committee. 

Marsha Waldman and Barbara Sentell 

coordinated our Marina Windjammers 

volunteers for the Cruise of Lights®. We 

loved all the support of our family members 

and friends who helped volunteer 

with us. 

A fun time was had by all at our 

holiday party hosted by Margie Bogart 

who was so gracious to open up her home 

so everyone could get a good view of the 

boat parade. Thanks to the hospitality 

committee including Kathie Saveliev, 

Margie Finlay, and Kathy Bunch for their 

enthusiasm in putting together such a 

wonderful event! The food was spectacular 

and everyone enjoyed a fun evening. 

As always, Lani Martin did a great 

job arranging our musical enrichment 

by violinist Julie Metz at our November 

meeting. Julie showed us all how to properly 

hold a violin and play. We all had the 

opportunity to practice playing a violin 

since Julie brought several with her. Kathy 

Bunch hosted the November meeting at 

her home which included a delicious 

variety of salads and casseroles for lunch. 

Our January meeting hosted by 

Karen Ridout included a special presentation 

by Dean Corey, President and Artistic 

Director of the Philharmonic Society. 

Dean shared his presentation, “Prelude to 

Beethoven, the Late Great” with us. Dean 

having a passion for Beethoven and his 

music is in the process of writing a book 

of essays on the subject. Karen Ridout 

told me this is the third year that Dean 

has dedicated this program toward the 

education of the philharmonic committee 

members. 

Many of us attended the special pasta 

dinner fundraiser at the House of Brews 

on January 23rd. Thank you to House of 

Brews for supporting HHPC and donating 

a percentage of sales that evening to 

HHPC! 

We are looking forward to our music 

mobile presentation dates at local schools 

in February. Thanks to Carlone Hermon 

for coordinating these dates. We will also 

be active in ushering for the 2nd and 5th 

grade concerts coming up this month. 

A warm welcome to our newest 

member, Lisa Weller. 

Interested in learning more about 

the Windjammers? Please contact our 

Membership Chairman, Karen Ridout 

at 714-847-0787 or by email at kridout@

Admiralty had an eventful November 

and December. We are delighted to welcome 

Barbara Alcott to our association. 

Barbara is a music teacher and is pleased 

to be with a group that sponsors a variety 

of musical education programs that serve 

over 200,000 children every year. 

The Zamboni’s opened their home 

for our November meeting which 

included a fantastic catered dinner. 

Our group served many hours soliciting 

restaurants so that we might advise our 

Cruise of Lights patrons where to eat 

before the parade. 

We also donated our time selling 

Cruise of Lights tickets and we met many 

charming people while volunteering to 

work the Cruise of Lights on Wednesday, 

December 19th. The poster was viewed 

by our Cruise of Lights patrons and was 

a good reminder of where their money 

is being used for the benefit of the many 

children throughout out Orange County. 

Our next meeting will be held on 

January 17th, 10:30 am, at the home 

of Elaine Montgomery. Please join us! 

Telephone our president, Bett Walton for 

directions 714-846-8096.

HHPC: Islanders 

by Eva Kilgore 

The Nichols family won a “Judge’s Award of Excellence.” 

The dynamic, incredible and charismatic 

president of Islanders, Cristi 

Ulrich, was all smiles this season, as 

Islanders stepped up to the plate big time. 

Some of our past Grand Marshals, Craig 

Ferguson, Cor Claus, Jenny Huntsinger, 

Jeff Silver, John Ochs, and Brian Griley 

celebrated respective themes and the rest, 

as they say, is history. 

What a parade! Islanders won prizes 

for home and boat decorations. Congrats 

to the Willingham family, Faubert family, 

Nichols family, and Kubeck for all of 

their hard work. And to all the additional 

Islanders for decorating their homes. 

Kim Willingham was everywhere 

making sure the boat parade ran smoothly, 

and the trophy brunch was a success. 

Mary Busche and Susan Qaqundah (helping 

out all season long) were an integral 

part of the Chili Night success. Cruise 

of Lights was incredible. Thanks to Kim 

Weddon, Kim Willingham, Marlene 

Nielsen and all the Islanders that 

loaded and unloaded buses, worked the 

docks, will call, answered phones, and 

assisted wherever they were needed. 

Thanks to spouses, too! Of course, 

we couldn’t do it without the help of 

CORE, including Brian Griley, Lynne 

Myers, Kathy Andrews, Kim Weddon, 

Craig Ferguson, and, again, the 

energetic Marlene Nielsen. We are trying 

to find a way to bottle that energy. 

Many Islanders joined our ribbon 

cutting ceremony at the Huntington 

Harbour Yacht Club, and had a super 

time. They made sure city officials and 

members of the Huntington Beach 

Chamber of Commerce felt extremely 

welcome. 

Now, the Grand Marshal Gala Event 

is coming up. Kim Sandoval, Susan 

Qaqundah and Mary Amen are making 

sure everyone will have a fabulous time. 

You can be sure Islanders will be there in 

droves! We have a lot of fun, and work 

hard to bring music programs and education 

to our local children. 

We’d love to have you join us! For 

information, please call 714-625-0228.

Santa (John Torribio) working with, from left: Pam Torribio, Linda Axel, 

Dianne Rector and Rachel Smith. 

Trinidad group “rocks”. We spent 

the holidays working for our wonderful 

Cruise of Lights, 50 years of this special 

event. You could find Trinidad members 

working in the Philharmonic office, 

“freezing” while loading people on boats 

or buses, working “Will Call”, or commentating 

for our cruise guests. These 

pictures reflect our dedication to the 

wonderful cruise of lights. 

Trinidad members could also be 

found at Chili Night/Reinvestment 

Night. This event takes place during 

our cruise and we invite the schools 

that receive monies from Philharmonic 

to attend and tell us about their music 

programs and how our monies help their 

schools. HHPC Parliamentarian, Linda 

Axel and Lyn Senske handed out checks 

to the local schools involved in this program. 

The local news station was there 

fi lming this event as this was our 50th 

anniversary year. 

As the winter months roll around 

you will find us ushering at the concerts 

for the children of Orange County and 

doing music mobile for our third graders. 

Our January meeting was at Linda Axel’s 

house and then on January 18th we had a 

fun party at Linda and Bob Axel’s home. 

This event was catered by Stone Fire Grill. 

This event was for new members. 

If you would like to join our group, 

please call Diane Campbell at 714-840-

of our wonderful group.

SYC Commodore’s Ball 2012 

On November 10, in the Queen 

Mary’s beautiful Verandah Grill 

Ballroom, 70 members and guests 

gathered for the club’s annual black tie 

Commodore’s Ball. Everyone looked 

great. The 4 bridge officers were rocking 

matching white dinner jackets with 

full officer regalia. After cocktails and 

delicious hors d’oeuvres (mini beef 

Wellingtons, crab cakes, spanakopita), 

Staff Commodore Jim Woods called us 

to dinner and honored the club with an 

inspiring invocation. 

The meal was delicious -- prime rib

Dale and first mate Sue recognized the 

selfless efforts of those who made 2012 

such a success. Event hosts in attendance 

were called forward, thanked for their service 

and presented with a small token of 

appreciation -- a set of stainless steel BBQ 

tools in a custom box bearing the club 

burgee and event hosts’ names. Dale and 

Sue also gave special thanks to the 2012 

board members, presenting each with an 

engraved paper weight.

Jeff Specht was presented with the 

Commodore’s Trophy. As his first official 

act, the incoming commodore presented 

out-going commodore Dale with a showcase 

of Patron tequila and presented Sue 

with a beautiful bouquet of flowers in 

the colors of the club. After the program 

portion of the night concluded the dance 

floor was opened, with DJ Alex inspiring 

us to get all Gangnam Style. Twenty-five 

attendees kept the celebration going to the 

next day, staying a the Queen Mary in its 

nostalgic and beautiful accommodations. 

Boat Parade entry 

Another winner for the planners, 

designers and builders of our entry in the 

Boat Parade. Our volunteers consistently 

create winning entries for this event. As 

always our special thanks go to Robin and 

Jean Clark for the generous donation of 

their boat “Fintastic” for our entry and 

the consistent energy and leadership of 

Bob McCormick. This year our entry was 

awarded the Best Yacht Club. We look 

forward to next years design and entry. 

Happy New Year from SYC. 

The New Year’s Eve Party was a fantastic 

finish to another great year. We had 

a beautifully decorated clubhouse complete 

with all the fi xings even a Rotating 

Flashing Disco Ball and a balloon drop as 

the clock struck midnight. The DJ along 

with his professional singers and Karaoke 

rocked the night away. We had a lot of 

very talented members whose Karaoke 

rivaled even the professionals. 

There were almost 100 partiers who 

danced well past midnight. And, as we 

all watched the ball drop at midnight 240 

balloons were released making for a truly 

great show. We welcomed our newest 

members Gordon Hunt and Barbara Hart 

with their new Burgee. To top off our 

evening a guest on our waiting list, Wayne 

Phillips, proposed to Dianne Kajikawa. 

He got a “YES”. This was a great start for 

the New Year. 

Job well done by hosts Commodore 

Jeff Specht & Bonnie, Rear Commodore

Christmas Tree Wonderland was 

truly that. There were many unusually, 

creatively. decorated Christmas trees. 

There were beautiful baskets with such a 

variety of goodies in them. Many of the 

one of a kind donated items were true 

treasures. The beautiful black glama mink 

and white fox fur blanket caught my eye. 

It certainly beat my fuzzy throw. We all 

bought raffle tickets, then set out to put 

them in the box for the item of our dream. 

Some of our winners were Mike Nielsen. 

Bobbie Sheldon and Angela Hartfelder 

who bought a six month membership 

donated by Huntington Harbour Yacht 

Club for her brother-in-law. Barbara 

Larson bought the other six month membership 

to the yacht club and is also going 

to join La Familia. 

Joyce Brown. Honoree. for all her years of devotion and work for the children of Orangewood. 

The highlight of the day was the 

Honor paid to our own Joyce Brown 

for her many, many years of tireless love 

and devotion to Orangewood children. 

Without her this wonderful event would 

have ended many years ago. Her determination 

kept it going and it grew and 

grew into a wonder affair with a lovely 

luncheon and fashion show at the Hilton 

29 

in Costa Mesa, with all profits going to 

help the children. 

We love to welcome new members 

and have them join our parties or even 

join our board of directors. For more

Huntington Harbour Garden Club 

by Kitty Rozenstraten 

From left: Mary Johnston, Barbara Devlin, Kay Goddard, Carole Eninger, Wendy Gingerich. 

Members of the HHGC got in 

the spirit of Christmas by visiting the 

Horticulture Department of Orange 

Coast College on November 30th. 

Marian Galanis was instrumental 

in arranging this field trip to learn about 

the poinsettia culture of OCC. Professor 

Joe Stead managed to squeeze some time 

in his busy schedule to lead garden club 

members on a tour of the department. The 

gardens were full of surprises: rock gardens, 

succulents from far away locations 

like Madagscar, exotic palm trees. Our 

guide was justly proud when he showed us 

Compassionate

and personal in-home care for:

Resident of Coral Cay 

the many plantings he had designed since 

joining the OCC faculty. These gardens 

are open to the public. The highlight of 

the tour was visiting the five large poinsettia 

greenhouses. 

Professor Stead explained that OCC 

started growing poinsettias for the holiday 

season 35 years ago. Beginning with a 

modest 100 cuttings that first season, the 

department’s curriculum now includes a 

class in poinsettia culture. This semester, 

he and his 18 students nurtured 12,300 

cuttings until they were ready for sale to 

the public in the beginning of December. 

30 

Acquiring these beautiful plants has 

become somewhat of a holiday tradition 

for the OCC community; 85 percent 

of the plants are already sold through 

pre-orders before the day of the sale. 

Compared to poinsettias sold in stores, 

the OCC plants are much fresher since 

they go directly from the greenhouse to 

the buyer. 

The Christmas spirit continued when 

club members held their annual Christmas 

luncheon at the home of Laurie Hill, 

mother-in-law of club president Doreen 

Hill. At one time Laurie Hill was an active 

member of the HHGC, but nowadays she 

and her husband shuttle back and forth 

between their homes on Catalina Island 

and in Huntington Harbour. The luncheon 

was a potluck affair with members 

bringing their favorite traditional holiday 

dishes. Norma Gibbs was in attendance 

after having been absent for the past 

couple of month. Her health has much 

improved and everyone was happy to 

hear Norma read her favorite Christmas 

poem reminding us of the true meaning 

of Christmas. 

After a short business meeting 

everyone socialized, ate, drank, and 

participated in another club tradition: 

the judging of original floral centerpieces 

submitted by several members. 

The centerpieces ranged from elegant 

to whimsical. The competition was tough. 

Barbara Simone’s arrangement won fi rst 

place. Her centerpiece consisted of a ring 

of plant cuttings, collected from her beautiful 

garden, flanked by two lime green 

candles – very elegant indeed. Other winners 

were Pearl Holmes, Doreen Hill and 

Barbara Devlin. Looking at the arrangements 

gave members ideas on making 

their own arrangements for the holiday. 

Another Christmas tradition was 

carried out after the luncheon. Kay 

Sullivan and Donna Longman delivered 

favors to the Roger’s Senior Center. These 

special favors lend a festive note to the 

Christmas meal trays. This annual project 

is in connection with Meals on Wheels 

Senior Outreach of Huntington Beach. 

Another gardening year has come 

to a close. New and exciting projects are 

on the agenda for 2013, with members 

already preparing for a Luncheon and 

Fashion Show Fundraiser in April. 

Anyone interested in finding out what the 

HHGC is all about is invited to attend 

our next meeting on January 15, 2013.

Huntington Harbour Art Association 

by Jackie Dvorman 

The waterfront home of Mary 

Ludin was ablaze with color as the Art 

Association displayed its creative works 

throughout the rooms of the home. It was 

a large show with 117 entries including 

Barbara Thorne’s quilt, “Ralph’s World” 

showing her husband listening to music 

while heading off to Avalon in his little 

boat. This quilt won the “Viewer’s Choice 

Award” by popular vote. Says Barbara, 

“Being part of a show with such expert 

artists makes me feel humble and grateful..” 

Pam Smart won first place with 

her large felted tote, and Pat McKenna 

won first place with her embroidery “Sea 

Creatures”. 

Another chance for exhibiting members’ 

talents will be in March when the 

Fine Arts group enters their paintings and 

art work for the yearly competition at the 

Corner Gallery in the Central Library. 

Eileen McCullough, well known local 

artist, will judge the entries, and awards 

will be given in seven categories at the 

champagne reception held on Friday, 

March 1 in the Corner Gallery. 

An excursion to the Bowers 

Museum, organized by Carol Persons and 

Barbara Johnson, was followed by lunch 

at Tangata Restaurant in the museum. 

Members saw a collection of pins from 

Madeleine Albright, a display of elaborate 

costumes from the fi lms worn by 30 actors 

in 25 fi lms, and the Russian collection of 

Faberge jewelry and rare objects. 

Pam Smart organized a trip to the 

extensive California art collection at the 

Pacific Club. The members had a rare 

opportunity for a tour of the paintings 

led by the Director of the Foundation, 

Jeffrey Le Plastrier. Luncheon at Bistango 

followed the tour. 

By popular demand, Linda Sackin 

gave a second workshop on “Raw

Huntington Harbour Yacht Club 

by Dean Oliver, Vice Commodore 

HHYC wins third award in the past four years! 

La Traviata 

by Lorraine Garafalo 

The HHYC team took the 

Sweepstakes award again in the annual 

boat parade (see cover), this will be the 

third Sweepstakes awarded to the club 

in the past four years. Hats off to all the 

talented and dedicated individuals that 

make this happen every year. 

The Yacht Club has come a long way 

in the past several months, dozens of new 

memberships, a total remodel of the interior 

of the club house and best of all we 

are open every night for beverages. What 

is even more exciting is our new Bistro 

Menu available in the bar Saturday thru 

Thursday to complement our usual Friday 

night fare. The dozen or more items are 

wonderful, with items for all kinds of 

tastes and life styles. Everything is reasonably 

priced with weekly specials such as 

Taco Tuesdays to spice things up a little. 

The Yacht Club has also just acquired 

two Cal 20 sailboats, we hope to use these 

to expand our youth sailing program and 

develop an interest in an adult sailing 

program as well. These boats can easily be 

made ready to get under the PCH Bridge, 

making them perfect for a romantic afternoon 

cruise. 

The Sea Bells Installation dinner was 

incredible; everyone enjoyed a wonderful 

meal prepared by our new Chef Steve 

Hazelton, while listening to the amazing 

sound of the Surf City Singers. Then just 

a week later we had our monthly Birthday 

Gala, again with fabulous food and live 

music by “The Grumps” getting many a 

romantic soul on the dance floor. 

Club Members got to double the fun 

with our “East Coast/West Coast” New 

Years Eve party. The fun started early as 

we dinned and danced to the East Coast 

countdown. Then the fun continued 

upstairs in the bar as the ambitious night 

owls among us stayed on to ring in the 

start of the West Coast New Year. 

Reverse Happy Hour on Fridays, 

Pool Tournaments, Sunday Brunches, 

Sunday Night Football, Taco Tuesdays, 

Classic Movie nights, Thursday Night 

Football, Smoked BBQ happy Hours, 

Burger bashes, Afternoon Cruises to 

neighboring Yacht Clubs, Road Trips to 

the races and points of interest, Monthly 

parties, oh and I almost forgot Cruises to 

local ports. We love to keep busy. 

We love to see new faces so if love 

boating, being around boats, talking 

about boats or just plain want to have 

fun, while meeting wonderful people, you 

need to become an HHYC member. We 

would be happy to introduce you to the 

Yacht Club as guests at one of our Sunday 

brunches and show you how wonderful 

our organization is. Or just give the club 

a call at 562-592-2186 or contact Vice 

Commodore Dean Oliver, in charge of 

membership, at 714-858-1444. You may 

also visit our website at www.hhyc.org. 

Jo Andrews, Chapter President, 

invited all active members and their 

spouses to a Thank You Party at her lovely 

waterfront home. She said: “Although La 

Traviata is dissolving, this very good “guild 

of friends” will continue to get together 

to support local and Center events.” La 

Traviata chapter was among those who, 

early on, worked so hard in contributing 

to the creation of the Segerstrom Center 

for the Performing Arts. This party was 

not only to honor current members but 

those members who pioneered in appreciating 

the need for music programs for our 

community and schools. We salute them. 

Guests enjoyed drinks and snacks 

and a fantastic catered buffet. Some congregated 

around the piano (with Jackie 

Demos playing) to sing-a-long to some 

old Broadway favorites.

Little Mermaid Guild of CHOC Children’s 

by Marguerite McEntee 

The Birthday girl, Lotus Williams, in the middle, surrounded by Little Mermaid Guild members. 

The Little Mermaids were delighted 

to celebrate Lotus Williams 90th birthday 

with her family and friends. Lotus has 

been a member of LMG since 1984, and 

her granddaughter, Michelle Blake, has 

been a major active fund raiser for the 

annual CHOC Walk for the last 12 years. 

There was a birthday cake in the shape of 

“90” and other cakes with Lotus’ picture 

on them when she was in her 20’s. Several 

large boards covered with family pictures 

were on display, among them were pictures 

and articles of Lotus receiving the 

“Honorary Life Member Award” from 

The Little Mermaid Guild in 1997. Five 

generations of Lotus’ family were present 

in the celebrations! A great time was had 

by all. 

Our 2012 Christmas Party took 

place at the beautiful water front home 

of Sandy and Bernie Stinton. Thirty 

two Mermaids and Mermen enjoyed the 

gourmet cuisine of Chef Jon, a Merman 

himself. Hors D’oeuvres and drinks were 

served on the deck allowing time to enjoy 

the holiday lights decorating the harbor, 

followed by a six-course sit down dinner. 

Dinner and desert were then followed by 

the famous gift exchange when we enjoy 

“stealing” each other’s favorite items. 

Little Mermaids are looking forward 

to another year of fund raising activities 

to support Children’s Hospital of Orange 

County. For information on our group,
