The 50th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DESERT PEAKS SECTION will be celebrated on Wednesday May 1st at the ANNUAL BANQUET. Get a chance to talk to some of the people who helped start and build our Section. Dinner will be at the beautiful outdoor setting of Lawry's California Center in Los Angeles at 570 West Avenue 26, near the interchange of the Pasadena and Golden State Freeways. There will be a wonderful program featuring Jalien Tully and Noella Ballinger with their show of "Sea of Sand, Land of Water" of Namibia in southwest Africa. Here the desert sand meets the ocean.
The dinner will be a Fajita Buffet featuring fresh fruit, gazpacho salad, black bean salad, flour tortillas, Mexican rice, grilled julienne of marinated chicken and beef, grilled onions and bell peppers, cheddar cheese, guacamole and Lawry's fresh salsa. There will be assorted pastries for dessert. All this for only $20 per person.

Also we will have a 50th Anniversary display of old time prints with prizes for the best old time people print and oldest picture.
