Report From the March 2026 Charter Chapter Luncheon in Laguna Beach
Guest Speaker Bill Altaffer shares Southern California surfer stories with Dennis Trombley.
Members and guests of the TCC Charter Chapter (Los Angeles/Orange County) gathered at the Mozambique Restaurant in Laguna Beach on Saturday, March 14, for our quarterly lunch meeting.
We honored two new members who achieved full status, along with a provisional member, in addition to welcoming seven guests who enjoyed the camaraderie and opportunity to share travel tales. Joining our ranks of full membership were Rick and Susan McCarthy, while provisional status was recognized for Kathleen Hughes.
Chapter Coordinator Michael Sholer introduced travel veteran Bill Altaffer (“The World’s Most Traveled Person”) who presented an interesting program (filled with anecdotes and observations of those nations’ modernizations), on his recent trip to Albania and Kosovo.
