Camp Ocean Pines

If you are interested in donating money to help local families send their kids to an overnight camp at Camp Ocean Pines (www.campoceanpines.org) in Cambria, they need you. Janette Stoll works there p/t as their marketing coordinator and gets a lot of calls from local families asking for partial to full scholarships for camp. Camp Ocean Pines is already a nonprofit, so they don't have a bounty of funds. The director offers a significant discount to help certain families, but still, kids who have never experienced camp are turned away! The camp serves children in the age ranges of 8-15; perhaps you know someone who would like to attend?

The ORIGINAL Womenade

This is the website of the original Womenade on which we are based. I have written them for advice on the need to be an incorporated nonprofit.

Hearst Cancer Resource Center

I attended a presentation last night about the Hearst Cancer Resource
Center. The center has been open for one year and provides a multitude
of free services (nurse navigator, support programs, nutritional
coaching, alternative practices, social activities, resource library)
for cancer patients, survivors and their families.
I was so moved and impressed by the presentation that I want to let
everyone know about the center. I thought you could pass the
information along through your Womenade network. (The director would
also be a good speaker for Womenade or other groups.)

Cuesta College Book of the Year

Cuesta College Book of the Year

 

In March and April, Cuesta College is hosting a series of book discussions, lectures and films (see attachment). This year’s program focuses on the experiences of Japanese-Americans interned during World War II in relocation camps like Manzanar and TuleLake. Internment provides a framework

for stories of loss, perseverance and resiliency along with efforts to recover and thrive after the war. Programs highlight the role that family, friends and farming played in sustaining the Japanese-American community in San Luis Obispo County. The series concludes with a lecture and reception with Julie Otsuka, author of this year’s book of the year, When the Emperor was Divine, a poignant novel that describes the travails of a Japanese-American family sent to one such internment camp.
