  • An Invitation to the June 2026 Charter Chapter Meeting at Los Angeles’ Historic Tam O’Shanter Inn

    Dennis and Diana Trombley in Matmata, Tunisia, on the “Star Wars” movie set of Luke Skywalker’s childhood home.

    Our next quarterly meeting of the TCC Charter Chapter (Los Angeles/Orange County) will be held on Saturday, June 13, at the historic Tam O’Shanter Inn in Los Angeles, where Diana and Dennis Trombley will present an exotic program on the magic of the North African nations of Algeria and Tunisia.

    Focusing on their recent journey, the couple’s presentation will explore Roman ruins, mystical desert oases, UNESCO sites, “Star Wars” filming locations, mosaic museums, ancient casbahs, colonial landmarks, the M’Zab Valley, and many indigenous peoples in this unforgettable adventure.

    The Tam O’Shanter, Los Angeles’ oldest restaurant operated by the same family in the same location, will be celebrating its 104th anniversary the month we meet!  The restaurant is located just a few blocks east of Interstate 5 (Golden State Freeway), using the Los Feliz Blvd. exit from either the north or south.  It is near Griffith Park to the west and Glendale to the east, and is just north of Dodger Stadium and south of the L.A. Zoo. Easy to find; if coming from the south, just stay on Interstate 5 past Downtown L.A., exiting at Los Feliz Blvd.
