So Cool So Cal So Claremont


Have You Noticed? Butterflies have been released for the season from the pavilion at Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, students are beginning to return for the new term at The Claremont Colleges and before we know it the final Monday Night Concert will rock on Sept. 4th. Oh my goodness, how time flies!

Lainie Kazan will be socializing with guests at Jazz and Art in the Park the evening of Sat. August 19 at Garner House in Memorial Park. Although Ms. Kazan will not be singing at this event (presented by Claremont Heritage) it will surely be an unforgettable evening. Limited tickets available. I'll be there and hope you will, too. (See more info in this enews.)

Cool things happen in this SUNsational So Cal Town year 'round and this enews is focusing on only a select few. Be sure to check out ClaremontEvents.com for even more.

Have Fun and Welcome Back, Students!
