All LMC members are invited to attend our monthly meetings, held the second Tuesday of each month* at St. Mark’s Church in Orinda from 7:00-8:45 p.m.

Topics are of interest to local parents and range from the relatively serious and practical (family financial planning, preschool selection, children’s health) to downright fun (planning memorable birthday parties, fitness for moms). Over the years, we’ve had dozens of excellent speakers, lively panel discussions, and demonstrations.

If you are interested in speaking at one of LMC's monthly meetings, please visit our Speaker Information page.

Come to socialize and enjoy complimentary meeting refreshments! Social time is from 7:00-7:30 p.m. We hope to see you at our next meeting!

*Please note: there is no meeting in August. Always confirm dates, times, and/or meeting locations as they are subject to change depending on topic or calendar.

Upcoming Monthly Meetings

July's Monthly Meeting: Tuesday, July 8, 2008

Tuesday, July 8
St. Mark’s Church, Orinda
Social: 7:00 – 7:30 p.m.
Meeting: 7:30 – 8:45 p.m.

Do you know how our club is run? Or do you ever think, "I have so many ideas, and I wish I could implement some of them" or "I want to become more involved but where do I start?"

Please join us at the July meeting to learn about open steering committee positions for the 2008-2009 year. We encourage all past, current, and potential new steering committee members to attend. Our goal is to educate potential members about the steering committee and provide them with as much information about each position as possible; including what sort of time commitment is involved with each. As you all know, we are an all volunteer organization and participation is of the utmost importance. This event will not only be informative but a lot of fun as well as we will be interacting and socializing with our fellow members, not something we get to do often enough! We’ll have yummy treats for dinner and dessert so come hungry.
