Welcome back to the Southern California Tuna Club in our 96th year
- Night meetings will once again begin the last Thursday of the month starting on June 24th. The Club will open at 5:30 with dinner by 6:00pm.
- Jeff Stone is trying to put together in September of this year a trip back to the Wild Animal Park. This is an event which is great for the kids and grandkids. The park takes our group on a special tour of the facility. They put food into pickup trucks and enter the park. The animals approach the trucks which allows our tour to get an up-close look at the animals. If anyone is interested contact Jeff Stone, 562 434 7131.
