Our first Meet Up takes place at the Bay Area Community Center's "Christmas in July" Event on Friday, 7/14 (9 AM - 5 PM) and Saturday, 7 /15 (9 AM - 3 PM). Christmas in July is a fundraiser held at the Bay Area Community Center, which gives seniors and local residents an opportunity to do holiday shopping in their community.
