KFC Coastal Mission- Shore Dive

At the end of each month we organize a coastal mission somewhere along the Southern California shoreline. The exact dive site depends on conditions that week - visibility, swell, surge, and what the ocean feels like doing - so we will finalize the location a few days beforehand. Anywhere from Orange County up through Ventura County is fair game. If you’re interested in joining the mission, RSVP here so we can send updates once we lock in the site and meeting details. The plan is simple: meet up, gear up, and spend a good day along the coast with other divers. Sometimes that means a couple dives and calling it a morning. Other days we hang around longer, stretch out on the beach, hydrate properly, compare notes from the dive, open a favorite beverage, maybe watch the sunset or wander off on a coastal hike. Some missions are calm blue-water days. Some are classic SoCal shore adventures. Either way the recipe stays the same. Cold water. Prepared divers. Proper hydration.

Let's Restore the Arroyo Seco - Hybrid Program

Pasadena has a historic opportunity to restore ecosystem health to the Arroyo Seco by bringing a forgotten stream back to life: Seco Creek, which flows through Brookside Park just below the Rose Bowl. For thousands of years this stream supported birds, fish, insects, and native plants. Now the City of Pasadena is planning to use it to recharge groundwater beneath the Brookside Park parking lot. Wouldn't it be far better to reconnect some of the stream flow to the Arroyo Seco stream and restore wetlands at the confluence? Our presenter will be Tim Brick, Executive Director of the Stewards of the Arroyo Seco and a former chair of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. Over his long career in public service, Tim focused on water resource management and environmental stewardship. Program begins at 7:30; join us for socializing 7:00 - 7:30. Can't be there in person? **You can also attend on Zoom.

Friday Mornings / Beach Volleyball

We meet every Friday morning at 9:00 a.m., in Manhattan Beach at the 4th Street courts. This group is open to INTERMEDIATE AND UP LEVEL players. This group is NOT for beginners. First time players are asked to show up and play before they ask to join the group via the Meetup app. For members, players are asked to bring their own volleyballs & lines, if you have them. Please RSVP as early in the week as possible so that we know that we have at least four players. To ensure the game is played on the same page for all, this group follows the USA Volleyball Beach Rules which can be reviewed at: [https://usavolleyball.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/2025-2027-USAV-Beach-Rules-Book_FINAL.pdf](https://usavolleyball.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/2025-2027-USAV-Beach-Rules-Book_FINAL.pdf) We look forward to seeing you on the sand.
