Holiday Party - December 2018
On Saturday December 15, 2018, 21 Kappa owners got together for our traditional Kappa Holiday Party. We had an amazing and very joyful time. We enjoyed wonderful food and drinks. But most importantly, we enjoyed each others company! We laughed as we played "white elephant" and are thankful for the joy our Kappas give us and the strong and loving friendships we have created along the way - we are a true "Kappa Family." We thank Vince & Rose for once again opening their lovely and very festive home to our Kappa family and to always being so generous and thoughtful. We wish everyone a wonderful Holiday Season filled with love, health and happiness. |

Temecula - January 2018
On Saturday January 13, 2018 we kicked off the New Year with a wonderful and scenic drive to Temecula. 14 Kappas came out to play (10 Sky & 4 Solstice). We met in Escondido and made our way to Temecula all through amazing twisty back roads. It was a 2 hour adventure driving topless under 80 degree weather! We cannot be any luckier to live in sunny San Diego were it feels like summer year around. We enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Claim Jumper were we spent a few hours eating, chatting and enjoying our wonderful Kappa people. Always a blast! After lunch 7 Kappas decided to continue the fun and drove about 25 minutes to the Ricardo Breceda Gallery and Sculpture Garden to checkout his amazing huge metal sculptures. It was a very cool and unique place.
