Our August TGIT HH at the Ventura Harbor was a huge success. We sat masked, socially distanced in chairs we each brought and munched and drank on food and drink that we brought or purchased at a Harbor restaurant. We even had two raffle winners. We will recap that event on Thursday, Oct 29 at 5:00 PM. Since it will be just before Halloween, feel free to come in costume. We know you will be wearing a mask anyway.  This is just before the end of Daylight Savings and the weather is turning cooler, therefore, this will be our last club TGIT HH until it is safe to meet in a restaurant. 
Important details:

• If you haven’t renewed your membership, bring your completed membership form (attached) and dues; see details below.
• Meet at 5:00 in Ventura Harbor at the “Take Out Zone” — the grassy main lawn between old Blackbeard’s and Island Packers. https://venturaharbor.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Map-P1.pdf  (It’s the square, green area with the #5 on the map).
• Masks (when not eating or drinking) and social distancing are required. Bring a chair or blanket to sit on. Just hang out or order take-out (drinks too) from the local restaurants. 
• We are not requiring an RSVP, but if our group gets too large, we will break into smaller groups to follow local COVID guidelines.
• If you are not feeling well, please stay home and we will catch you another time!
• We plan to have a raffle if enough members attend, with some great prizes!
• We look forward to seeing you and enjoying a harbor sunset! 
• PS, we recommend you order ahead for food and libations since there can be lines at some of the restaurants:  Dine – Ventura Harbor Village

Please join us for happy hour on Thursday at Settebello’s , 2760 Seaglass Way, Oxnard, CA 93036. Settebello’s has a nice happy hour menu and drink specials. Look forward to seeing you there!

Join us for Happy Hour at Fratellis Pizza and Brew, 1559 Spinnaker Drive #100, Ventura Harbor. Fatellis is more than a pizza and beer place; they offer Wings, Artichokes, Steak Skewers, sandwiches, as well as wine and cocktails.

Check out their menu at http://www.fratellispizzaandbrew.com

You have probably been to a Cheese Cake Factory Restaurant, but have you been to the newest one at the Collection in Oxnard? By popular request, the Los Padres Ski and Social Club is heading there for our TGIT Happy Hour this Thursday, November 14. 

Lots of yummy (and even healthy) items on the menu. See attached for their HH and small bites menu.

A word of advice: Since this is a smaller venue and they do not reserve seats, if you want to sit together please try to arrive close to 4 PM. The best (and free) parking is at the back of the restaurant (take a right by Whole Foods and the CCF is by Lazy Dog which is more visible from the back).

Hope to see you there for more fun times!

Los Padres Ski and Social Club will visit one of the newest (and coolest) establishments for TGIT Happy Hour this Thursday, October 17 from 4 – 6 PM —  Finney’s in Ventura. Their other gastropubs are in Westlake Village and Santa Barbara. 
Finney’s is located at 494 E. Main Street, Ventura (corner of California and Main)
