On May 13th, Mother's Day, a group of West Coast Arts et Métiers alumni gathered for a Pool and BBQ Party at Brookside club at Saratoga, CA. Swimming, eating, enjoying each other's company - looks like a pretty busy and enjoyable day. During this gathering gadzarts could also talk about AFAM's board renewal and electing new West Coast Group President. New members of the Board and New Group President will be announced after the AFAM Board meeting on June 12.
On May 4th a group of Bay Area-based gadzarts gathered in St John's Bar and Grill located in Sunnyvale, CA. St John's is a place with A+ burgers and excellent sides. Even though it was crowded, our A&M alumni could find a perfect spot and enjoy each other's company and a beer or two.
Meanwhile the same day Houston-based gadzarts enjoyed wine on the terrasse of The Tasting Room at Uptown.
Stay tuned for upcoming Central and West Coast Groups' events!
