Dear Cambria Neighbors,
On August 18, 2022 we had our wine event at Harmony Cellars in Harmony, California. What a beautiful and picturesque setting for a delightful afternoon of wine tasting with friends and visitors. Thank you Harmony Cellars!
As Cambria Neighbors Club we are always delighted when visitors join us, even if it's just for the day. We hope their visit brings joy and thoughts of good times when they come together at our programs and special events. In September, Cambria Neighbors Club will be celebrating our 25th Silver Jubilee.
I am honored to be your President with the assistance of our program chairs and board members to provide you with interesting and fun programs each month. We invite everyone who has been a part of Cambria Neighbors Club, formerly known as Cambria Newcomers Club, to attend this special program on September 15, 2022 at San Simeon Beach Bar and Grill. For more information see the program section in our newsletter. Looking forward to seeing everyone in September.
Enjoy your journey, be safe and be well,
Cheryle Raiter - President Cambria Neighbors Club
