The House of Pacific Relations will hold its annual Moonlight Fiesta on the lawns of the Cottages in Balboa Park on Sunday August 23rd at 5:30 p.m. Tables will be set up in front of the Cottages and while supper is being served, continuous entertainment will be provided by the various Cottage groups.
While a pot-luck supper is being arranged by board members among themselves, other members of our Cottage are welcome to attend this Fiesta but must of course provide their own lunch. Coffee will be served through the courtesy of the Cottage of Israel. Since seating space is limited, those coming first will have first choice.
The third annual meeting of the Cottage of Israel will be held on August 30, at Beth Jacob Auditorium. An excellent program is being planned for this occasion by Miss Esther Weitzman and new officers for 1953-54 will be officially introduced at this meeting.
