Speaking of the League of Women Voters, on Saturday, 4/21, at 5:30 p.m., the League will be holding its 32nd annual gala auction. The event, titled "Paris After Dark," is a dinner and silent auction and will also be at the Alexander Hughes Center.

Visit and say "hi" to such Claremont 400 luminaries as Judy Wright, Diann Ring, Suzan Smith, Helaine Goldwater, Ellen Taylor, and Linda Elderkin. Talk about "continuity"!

Tickets are $55 per person, and you need to reserve by Monday, 4/16.

Call 624-9457 for tickets and information.

It must be the season of charitable giving in Claremont because Friday, 4/27, is a shop & dine day benefiting the Claremont Educational Foundation (CEF) and Claremont schools. A portion of the money spent at participating shops and restaurants goes to CEF.

Like the League of Women Voters, you'll find many Claremont 400 and Preserve Claremont members in the background at CEF: Amy Mathieson (current CEF President), Ken Corhan (CEF Immediate Past President), and Paul Held (CEF Boardmember). You can't tell the players without a scorecard!

Call 399-1709 for more information.
