in

a Beautiful Rancho Palos Verdes Garden

Come enjoy a delicious Pot-Luck picnic in a beautiful garden, high on a hill overlooking Catalina Island and the vast blue Pacific, and get to know your fellow TMA/SC members and friends!  TMA/SC has brought back one of our traditional activities by popular demand, a fun Moth Market, social picnic and show & tell.  What’s a Moth Market?  You bring any rugs and/or textiles and ethnically inspired or compatible items of personal adornment that you would like to sell, and offer them to other members and their guests.  Hint: Items under $100 sell best!  Space is limited; you may have a whole or share part of a tabletop, up to 8’, or set up a similar space on a blanket on the lawn; you must mind your own sales table or area, and your own sales.  Cash or checks only, please, unless the seller has a Square-type wireless system. Tables may be rented; please see the RESERVATION CARD for details.  Think about partnering with another member, to share table-minding time so that you can shop, too!  Attention Dealer members:  Please take into consideration the spirit of this event, and bring a limited and appropriate amount of inventory for the space allotted. 

***Only TMA/SC Members may have tables and sell!***  Your guest helpers are welcome, but they may not sell their goods.

LUNCH:  TMA/SC will provide coffee & tea, fizzy water, wine, luncheon plates and table-settings, grilled chicken, and picnic tables and seating. You bring an Appetizer, Salad, Side-dish or Dessert (see the separate Reservation Card, for details.)  Please bring any soft drink that you’d like to drink.

Members’ Show & Tell:  Bring one or two rugs and/or textiles from your collection:  Something you acquired recently, a mystery piece, or a special favorite.  Share it with TMA members—we will all learn and enjoy!

Admission:  By Pre-Paid Reservation only; see separate link to Reservation Card.  Final Deadline: posted by Saturday, September 12.  EARLY RESERVATION DISCOUNT for Reservations post-marked by TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8.  For security reasons, the address will only be sent to you upon receipt of your pre-paid reservation. 

Questions and cancellations: cherihunter@earthlink.net   We appreciate your courteous cancellation if you cannot come; everyone counts!  Five cancellation notices can save TMA/SC money on wine, food, and chair and table rentals, which can go toward speaker expenses.   Send your reservations and payment:  c/o TMA/SC Reservations, 1246 Bienveneda Ave., Pac. Palisades, CA  90272. 

 

POT-LUCK DETAILS:

We know that TMA/SC members are great cooks, and we love homemade contributions.  Please bring your specialty!  Regarding quantity:  If every person attending (including each member of a couple, or Member + guest) brings a large plate of food, there will be a large plate of food for everyone. Think about 8 servings; remember, there will be many other offerings to fill guests’ plates.  Please include your spouse or guest in your serving count; you are welcome to bring for them.  PLEASE BRING YOUR CONTRIBUTION ALREADY CUT UP, ASSEMBLED, READY TO SERVE, ON A PLATE OR BOWL, WITH A SERVING UTENSIL.  We will not be using the kitchen for any preparation.  If your offering requires refrigeration before serving, please bring it in a cooler, or set on an ice-filled Ziploc bag.

WEATHER & DRESS:  Coastal Fall weather is unpredictable.  Be sure to dress in layers, bring a warm jacket, and wear a hat!  We will be out in the full sun, but sometimes the fog suddenly rolls in off the ocean, and it gets chilly very quickly.
