## Activities

Browse the list below for something of interest to you. If you don't see a group that matches your interests, we encourage you to start a group!

- ### Festive Get Togethers
  
  Held a few times a year as special occasion: the Welcome Back Brunch is usually held end of August to start off our new membership year festively. Around Halloween we'll host a coffee morning with pastries and welcome you in Halloween costumes. Beginning December we get together at the house of one of our members for a lovely Holiday potluck lunch. Valentine's Day usually calls for another nice coffee morning or brunch, and our End-of-the-Year party celebrates another year of great friendships with members and partners.  
  These events begin with a social time, followed by a short business meeting.   
  Dates and times will be posted in the monthly Newsletter.
- ### Bocce Ball
  
  Bocce is played occasionally at Campo de Bocce in Los Gatos. Bocce is a team sport that takes only a few minutes to learn, so join this group for a good time and social time afterwards. Partners are usually welcome.
- ### Book Club
  
  The book club meets once a month on the first Wednesday at 2PM in a member's home. during the last meeting of the year members vote on which books to read the following year. Members are welcome to submit their favorite books.
- ### Creative Crafts
  
  For those who knit, crochet, cross stitch, needlepoint or do any handicraft (it doesn’t have to involve stitches!). We are lighthearted and welcoming.

- ### Discussion Group
  
  Share and discuss newspaper or magazine articles of interest over wine and hors d’oeuvres. 
- ### Game Day - You Call It!
  
  This fun loving group meets the 3rd Thursday of the month in a member's home at 11:00 a.m. The "hostess" gets to pick the game. BYO lunch and plenty of dimes. We play a variety of easy-to-learn games, such as Mexican Train (the favorite!), cards, Tripoly, etc.  New players welcome!
- ### 9 Hole Golf
  
  Enhance your golf game with our 9 Hole Golf course, whether you're a beginner looking to improved the basics or a seasoned player aiming to fine-tune your techniques.
