Women’s Club swings into the fall season

The Scripps Ranch Women’s Club celebrated the end of summer in a perfect way – a sunset picnic overlooking the Pacific Ocean at beautiful Cuvier Park in La Jolla. Thank you to Connie Gallagher from our Social Committee for planning a delightful summertime picnic accompanied by a gorgeous sunset!
Fall is in the air! The Women’s Club is swinging into the fall season with a number of fantastic social programs and events. A high note for September was a behind-the-scenes tour of the Old Globe Theatre followed by a delightful luncheon in Balboa Park.
September was a great month for the theater. Not only did we tour the Old Globe, but our members and their guests attended opening night for the play “Fully Committed” at the Scripps Ranch Theatre. Opening night was highly entertaining as we enjoyed both a great comedy production and the celebration after the play where we mingled with the talented cast and crew.
The Women’s Club is growing by leaps and bounds and we are continually adding new programs to meet the interests of all of our members.
Recently, we added pickleball, a Coffee Klatch, Scrabble, and a new Book Group. Needless to say, Women’s Club members are looking forward to a great club year with our usual focus on enriching friendships and providing fun and stimulating activities.
Our dedicated Social Committee, led by Patti Beaver, curated an exceptional slate of programs for the coming year to appeal to our members. For example, there will be a wine tasting at the Cordiano Winery in October and a tour of the Hotel del Coronado in November. Another favorite group is our Arts and Culture Group which is planning outings in the next few months ranging from opera to viewing public art in Chicano Park and enjoying museum trips. Our foodies are never forgotten because all of these social activities are replete with wonderful luncheons and special treats.
The Club’s many interest groups gather on a regular basis and provide both new and long-standing members with fun and engaging social activities. There are Bridge, Bunco and Book groups, as well as a very entertaining Fun and Games Group that plays different games each month and brings lots of smiles and laughter. Mahjong has emerged as one of our most popular activities. And, we have monthly walks and nature hikes that allow us to enjoy the great outdoors. Of course, the very best part of our club is spending time together!
If you are looking to expand your social circle, enhance your friendships, and enjoy the stimulation of a variety of social activities, the place for you is the Women’s Club.
