What we’re about
We are an all-age group, though a lot of us are Boomers. Originally, our focus was on exploring Santa Clara Valley/Valley of the Heart's Delight/Silicon Valley/ -- visiting local history museums, touring historic neighborhoods, walking and hiking all around the county, and gathering weekly for California History Movie Night.
Since we've seen about everything there is in The Valley of the Heart's Delight over the 9 years since the group started, we now tend to go further afield to get to know the towns and counties around us -- San Francisco, Oakland, Alameda, Danville, Walnut Creek, and more.
We have three big favors to ask of members: please don't sign up if you aren't sure you will show up absent an emergency; PLEASE READ EVENT DESCRIPTIONS CAREFULLY for your own good, so you know what to bring and what to expect, and please make a donation from time to time to organizers to help with Meetup costs.
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Twilight Tales and an evening walk at AlvisoNeeds location
Join us for an evening at the refuge in Alviso to hear tales of rails, tales of tails, and tales of gold, silver, and … garbage. You’ll learn why the refuge was created and why it is so important to all of us. Then as the sun sets, you’ll go on an easy stroll through the marsh on our boardwalk to find out how and why this area, a restoration of the original natural environment, is being adapted for the future.
The Refuge also requests that you RSVP to
https://TwilightTalesJune2025.eventbrite.comAfter this presentation and walk, we can head over to nearby Vahl's Restaurant for a drink or snack and a chance for further conversation.
We're looking forward to seeing you there!
