Attendees

Thank you to our membership, guests, and local officials for attending our Christmas Party and Annual Meeting on December 3, 2023.  We had a wonderful dinner with members, friends, and guests at Bayside Restaurant in Newport Beach, California.  A time to give thanks, recognize our shared accomplishments, report on the year, and swear in officers to the board.

Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer was our keynote speaker.  He is dedicated to ensuring the safety of our county and has served as an Orange County Supervisor, Assembly Member, and now as the Orange County District Attorney.  The District Attorney is also a former high school teacher.  Additionally, he is a father to two children and his wife is Judge Jamie Spitzer.

We appreciate his dedication and problem-solving to help maintain a good quality of life in Orange County.  Visit his website to discover more information.

Also, we thank the District Attorney for administering the oath of office for our board. 

Thank you to Kevin Gillhooley, LCR California PAC Chairman, for attending our Christmas party.  Kevin is a former president of LCROC and this year raised contributions from members to donate to campaigns.  D.A. Todd Spitzer was presented with a donation on behalf of the LCRCA PAC for his hard work and dedication.

Additionally, Matt Gunderson spoke at our Christmas party.  He is a candidate for the 49th congressional district (Northern San Diego, Laguna Niguel, Dana Point, San Clemente, and San Juan Capistrano).  We appreciate Matt Gunderson's support and events with him.  Please visit his website to learn more about his campaign.

Thank you again to our sponsor, Luxman Nathan, for helping to make the event possible.  

Much appreciation for the toy donations from attendees for the Spark of Love campaign.  The Spark of Love campaign provides toys for youth in need across Southern California. 

Wishing you all the best and a prosperous New Year, with good health and peace to all.
