Community Meetings
First Wednesday Luncheon
A representative of the U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Port
Angeles will speak at the First Wednesday Luncheon,
Wednesday, March 7. The Air Station/Sector Field
Office in Port Angeles is responsible for conducting
Search and Rescue, Law Enforcement, Homeland
Security and Resource Protection activities in an area that
includes the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the northwestern
coast of Washington around the Olympic Peninsula to the
mouth of Puget Sound, including Port Ludlow.
Go to the Beach Club at 11:00 a.m. for the monthly
luncheon. Once again, the lunch will be provided by the
Food Committee. Instead of paying for your lunch, you
are asked to make a donation to the Food Bank. This
month the following donations are requested: canned
fruit, body soap and other personal hygiene products. Of
course, cash or checks are much appreciated.
And remember, First Wednesday Luncheons have gone
green this year. So, remember to take your own table
service, including plate, silverware, napkin, cup, etc. The
money the Committee saves by not providing these place
settings can then be donated to the Food Bank.
Mark your calendar for next month’s luncheon on
Wednesday, April 4. It will again be at the Beach Club
with speaker Karen Griffith. A Port Ludlow resident, she
will describe the many creative ways we can produce our
own life stories.
Dine and Discover
On Monday, March 5, 5:30 p.m., at the Bay Club, experience
the adventures of Elsie Hulsizer as she shares the
stories of her quest to find the authentic spirit of Southeast
Alaska. In May 2006, Hulsizer and her husband began a
three-summer adventure in their 44-foot sailboat, cruising
what many consider to be this country’s last frontier,
delving deeper into the characters, culture and abundant
natural wonders of that amazing region.
On Monday, April 2, 5:30 p.m., also at the Bay Club,
be entertained by Robert L. Rosen, famed television
and movie producer, back by popular demand after a
fabulous presentation here several years ago. He was the
executive producer of 29 titles, including the TV shows
Gilligan’s Island, Hawaii Five-O, Puff the Magic Dragon,
It’s About Time and others, as well as movies such as
French Connection II, Year of the Gun, Sniper, The Crow,
Wrongfully Accused and many more. Over many decades
he mingled with the biggest Hollywood stars including
John Wayne, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Gene Hackman,
Lucille Ball and many others. He has a vast collection of
film clips, stories and insider information that he presents
with wit and interest.
For both events, sign up at the Bay Club to bring a
potluck dish to serve at least 10 people. Remember
to bring your own complete table settings including
placemats, dishes, glasses, utensils, napkins and your
favorite beverage. A $2 per person fee will be collected
at the door. For answers to your questions call Hilda and
Michael Cahn at 437-8223.
Garden Club
Has your garden ever experienced the winter doldrums?
Does it lack color and interest?
Pack your lunch (beverages and dessert are provided!)
and join the Garden Club for an interesting program with
stimulating conversation on Wednesday, March 14,
11:00 a.m. at the Beach Club.
Karla Lortz from Heaths and Heathers Nursery will
demonstrate how to add dazzle to winter gardens and
suggest tips and aids for successfully growing heaths
and heathers. You may have asked yourself, “What is
the difference between heaths and heathers?” Karla will
answer that query as well and other questions as our
featured guest speaker. As an added bonus there will be
plants to purchase!
Annual dues are $20 and non-members are welcome for a
$5 fee.
Any questions relating to this program may be directed to
Judi Smith at 437-7660.
