Bonsall Woman's Club meeting is Sept. 6

FALLBROOK – The Bonsall Woman's Club will have its first meeting of the 2018-2019 year, 9 a.m., Thursday, Sept. 6.

The meeting will be held in the Mediterranean-style club house at The Golf Club of California, 3742 Flowerwood Lane, in Fallbrook. The doors open 9 a.m. The business portion of the meeting begins 10 a.m. with the Canine Companions for Independence program following.

Lunch will consist of a panko parmesan crusted chicken with sherry cream, rice pilaf and a Wedgewood vinaigrette salad. Bread and butter will also be served. Coffee and tea will be available for all attendees.
