Special Events

 

bulletPresidents' Party
For more than 40 years, City Club members have honored the outgoing and incoming presidents at a formal dinner-dance. Members and guests enjoy an elegant social evening with a cocktail reception, a tasty dinner, and dancing to a local band.

Venues have included The Athenaeum at Cal-Tech, San Gabriel Country Club and the Valley Hunt Club, where we returned for this year's celebration.  Attendance has ranged from 100 to 174 happy partygoers.  Some couples entertain others in their homes prior to the event itself.

In 2010, the Presidents' Party will be held on Saturday, February 13, at the Valley Hunt Club.  For information, please click here or call Earlene Cheung at 626.585.8183.

bullet Golf Tournament
Forty to 60 golfers participate in City Club’s annual golf tournament with door prizes donated by local businesses and trophies for the best – and luckiest – golfers.  The tournament has been held at San Gabriel Country Club, California Country Club l(Whittier), Industry Hills (City of Industry) and Brookside Golf Course (Pasadena).  A shotgun start launches the foursomes of men and women ad the day ends with an awards dinner.  A Callaway competition and a stroke play handicap competition give everyone a chance to “bring home the gold.”  The “Pink Ball” competition builds a money prize for two lucky groups.  Other competitions include Long Drive and Nearest to the Pin.

In 2010, the 27th annual tournament was held on Monday, June 28 at San Gabriel Country Club.

Non-City Club golfers are welcome to play in the tournament, space permitting. For information, please call Tom Santley at 626.441.1445 or Pete Loeffler at 626.287.8545.

bulletSummer Party
At the request of many members, a casual summer social event was added to the City Club calendar. In recent years, a "Summer Fiesta" has been held on the patio at El Molino Viejo (The Old Mill), San Marino’s historic treasure. On a warm evening in June, City Club members and guests enjoy a Mexican dinner prepared by Los Tacos Catering, listen to the melodies played by a classical guitar musician, and celebrate the end of the school year.   Save June 15th.

bulletFourth of July Parade
Along with other community groups, San Marino City Club has entered a "float" in the traditional community parade that culminates in Lacy Park. The "float" consists of a classic convertible car rather than an elaborately decorated vehicle. The City Club president or another officer usually rides in the car. The Fourth of July Celebration fills Lacy Park and includes games for children, several bands (including the infamous "Dad’s Band"), and a spectacular 25-minute fireworks show which concludes the evening.

Rose Court Dinner  

Each November, the City Club dinner meeting hosts the Tournament of Roses President along with the Rose Queen and her Court.  This is one of our most popular events as daughters and granddaughters attend with our members to meet and eat with Royalty.

PRESENTATION OF CANDIDATE DEBATES, COMMUNITY FORUMS AND TOWN MEETINGS

San Marino City Club encourages the highest standards of citizenship by sponsoring public forums or debates prior to city-wide elections, including city council, school board, and local bond financing elections. The debates are often tape-recorded for later broadcast on San Marino's local community Channel 19.
