Here is the video of Lia’s remarkable, incredible, inspiring presentation from Friday. Thank you to everyone who came in person and to the huge crowd on Zoom. It was our first night back in The Club and was a huge success.
And here is an additional treat from Lia (as requested by Carole) the link to last month’s behind-the-scenes making of the film update. Feel free to share it.

from 6 to 8:00 pm
|
|
|

|
The evening will feature a flight of four beers from Blue Oak Brewery, a 7-barrel microbrewery based in neighboring San Carlos. Their mix of true-to-style beers and one-off experiments have garnered a loyal following from craft beer enthusiasts. Blue Oak brews are an example of high-quality brewmanship and rarely available off-premise so this will be a special evening for aficionados or anyone who wants to learn more about beer. Snacks included.
RSVP here by May 11th required. Limited to 25 people.
Hosted by Paul Kettle & Mark Sanders
Price is $20 per person which covers a welcome beer, a beer flight (4x4oz) of the evening’s tasting, and favorite beer to finish along with snacks.

Jamis MacNiven
Jamis MacNiven is the founder and proprietor of Buck’s of Woodside, the restaurant known around the business world as Venture Capital Central for almost 30 years where Valley tech companies including Netscape, Hotmail, Paypal, Tesla, and countless others had their earliest investment meetings.
With the management of the restaurant now in the hands of his three sons and origin stories of tech giants now the stuff of legend, Jamis has set his sights on new voyages — chronicling the fascinating and wondrous history of distant locales and remarkable voyages of the vast Pacific Ocean.
“My motto is: ‘Travel to places you will never go.’ Trust me when I say I will take you to places you have not considered. This is a vacation from the cares of the world with not a whiff of the virus. But watch out for malaria, beriberi, blackwater fever, typhus, cannibals, murderous mosquitos, sharks, sea urchins, saltwater crocodiles, deadly jellyfish, political shenanigans, white bread with Spam and wildly overpriced Pina Coladas.”
“For me, it’s time for some blue water under the bow; so come with me and my parrot, Zimbabwe, and I’ll take you on a trip to strange and wondrous places.”
Please join us Friday, May 14th at 6:00 pm
