 | Presidents' 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 and local private clubs. Attendance has ranged from 100 to 174 happy partygoers. Some couples entertain others in their homes prior to the event itself. In 2012, the Presidents' Party will be held on Saturday, February 25,
at a local private club in Pasadena. For information, please call Frank
Chen at 626.441.4205 or email

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 (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 2012, the 29th annual tournament will be held on Monday, October 8 at San Gabriel Country Club. Non-City Club golfers are welcome to play in the tournament, space permitting. For information, please see the Reservation Form or call Tom Santley at 626.441.1445 or Pete Loeffler at 626.287.8545. |
| Summer 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. |
| Fourth 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. |
