DALMATIAN-AMERICAN CLUB'S COMMUNITY FISH LUNCHEON TURNS 60

ON FRIDAY, MARCH 31, the Dalmatian-American Club celebrated the 60th year and return of its Community Fish Luncheon. (COVID prohibited the anniversary celebration until this year.) The sold-out banquet hall was filled with a who’s who of legendary San Pedrans, politicians, business owners, and community leaders who were served heaping helpings of mostaccioli pasta, grilled salmon, red clam chowder, salad, and chocolate chip cookies. The Dalmatian-American Club began the bimonthly fish luncheons in 1961 (on the last Friday of every other month) with a small group of 18 from San Pedro’s local business community. Today, the luncheon serves hundreds and has become famous for its networking opportunities and history of dealmaking within its renowned hall.
