ABOUT US
We work with the PACE Center for Girls of Orange County to
provide enrichment activities and other types of assistance for
the teenage girls and their families. Examples are the Annual
Thanksgiving Dinner and the Miracle Boxes that are presented to the girls just
before the school break for the holidays. The branch will continue to
provide science programs to the girls in January and February.
We have an annual book and author fundraising luncheon in
the spring
The interest groups are all very active; there are six
booklovers groups. Dates of meetings are
listed in the Branchline each month.
