As we sympathize with friends and family (and try not to gloat) suffering with record cold, spring is already coming to Santa Monica. Another new beginning; a chance start something afresh--maybe by joining one of our upcoming study committees.  Talk to us about over lunch on Saturday.

Saturday, February 28th, is Lunch with the Mayor, Kevin McKeown.  The restaurant is being accommodating and we can accept reservations for another day or so.  We have a new mayor, a new council, and, soon, a new city manager.  Mayor McKeown will share his thoughts on what lies ahead. For your convenience you may now make reservations on line and pay in advance via Paypal.
