 mmy Gomes of Catalina Offshore Products will be grilling up fish tacos for us. He will also have a sea-harvest ceviche. Banyan Catering is providing their signa  ture Mashed Potato Martini Bar and Sweet and Sour Meatballs and Sunny Side Kitchen will ser ve their "adventurous" bite-size gourmet cookies. All accompanied by fine wines provided by Milagro
Farm in 40th Anniversary commemorative wine glasses. Classic and
micro-brew beers provided by CountyWide Wholesale. Thank you to all!   Tickets (need we add that they are going quickly?) are now available for the 40th Anniversary kickoff celebration. And while tone of the evening will be definitely nostalgic, the venue will be definitely 21st century. The party will take over the 10,000-square-foot recreation center at Circa 37 that features a poolroom, gym, and lounge area that overlooks the resort-style pool complex. (Robin Wilson Carrier, who invited the Press Club into her home for the 2010 Holiday Party, is the interior designer for the center.) The New York Times called this new urban infill village "a perfect model for the future growth of the region." Sudberry Properties, master developer of Civita, will be our host and major sponsor of the celebration. What: 40th Anniversary Kickoff Celebration Date: May 18, 2012 Time: 6-9 pm Where: Circa 37 Recreation Center in the New Urban Village of Civita, San Diego's Mission Valley Price: $20 to members of any media group $25 to general public.

Honorary Committee forming for 40th Anniversary Kickoff
So far the committee numbers 38 members, including 15 former presidents. Please demonstrate your support of the future of journalism by joining the Honorary Committee with a modest personal contribution of $100. As a member, your name will be highlighted in the invitation, program, Press Club website, the Foghorn and during the presentation that evening. Since the party is being substantially underwritten by Sudberry Properties, the Press Club Board has voted to donate all funds raised by the Honorary Committee to the San Diego Press Club Foundation for journalism scholarships.
