May 16, 2009 - Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards, Windsor The graceful and picturesque croquet lawns of Sonoma-Cutrer are the backdrop for an exquisite afternoon in wine country. Hundreds of wine and food enthusiasts don their "croquet whites" at this spring ritual.

October, 2009 - Aquatic Park, San Francisco Three events in one - all hosted by the San Francisco Police Department to raise money for our chapter!  Enjoy breakfast or lunch with Cops and Coffee; jump in San Francisco Bay during the Plunge in the Bay; or accept the challenge of the Cable Car Pull, all in the picturesque location of Aquatic Park.  During the Cable Car Pull teams of four compete against each other to see who can pull a cable car the fastest over a distance of 200 feet.  It's not too early to form your team, start to "bulk up" and be ready to be cheered on by a crowd of supporters, along with wish kids and their families.
