Second Sunday

Come join our recently mutated TTT group on December 11, the second Sunday of the month in West Los Angeles' "Little Osaka" district on Sawtelle. We will be thinking outside the sushi box and eating at Chabuya Japanese, a restaurant known for its great ramen and noodles. This district is quite charming and worth the trip if you've never been.

Chabuya is located at 2002 Sawtelle Blvd. in West Los Angeles. We will meet at 7 p.m.

As per Reed tradition, holiday fanfare will be strictly forbidden. Leave your reindeer sweaters at home, and bring your Reed-loving or ramen-loving significant others, children, videographers, personal hairdressers, etc.

RSVP to Erin Smith '10 at smiterin@me.com

Thirsty Third Thursday

Share conversation and comestibles with fellow Reedies on Thirsty Third Thursda... or Sunday (see above)! Look for the pink table-top sign and the stuffed griffin at a pub/bar/restaurant near you.

Listserve

The Southern California chapter has recently set up an email listserve to arrange get-togethers with fellow Reedies on short notice. If you want to invite Reedies to join you for a concert, movie, drink, dinner or a hike, please send an email to the list. This is an opt-in list, which means the only people who will see the announcements will be people who have subscribed to the web page. There is an option to get the messages combined in one message daily or weekly; please subscribe at https://www.lists.reed.edu/mailman/listinfo/alumni-so-cal-network

If you have an idea for an event please contact the chapter. We'd love to hear your ideas.

Steering Committee
