The LA/OC USNA Alumni Chapter is doing well. Since our last submission, we have continued with our monthly Zoom Happy Hours and board meetings. With things opening up in So Cal, we hope to hold our first inperson Happy Hour and board meeting in August. We have also began to plan events for the latter half of 2021. Potential Events for 2021: - Annual Summer Picnic by the Parents Club of Southern California - Battleship IOWA Labor Day Celebration - Tiki Boat Cruise Newport Harbor - Navy Football Watch Parties (Chair Force, Notre Dame, Army) Our North LA group has got back to their tradition of holding a monthly luncheon at Mimi’s Cafe in San Gabriel Valley. They meet the 4th Thursday of every month. For more info contact: gshindler64@ earthlink.net.

San Diego is getting back to normal (slowly) and chapter activities are picking up. Here’s what has been going on: Our first in person event was a happy hour (naturally) at the VFW with five decades of alumni represented from the class of ’60 to ’01.
