Club anniversaries of Debby De Angelis and Matthew Spielberg brought in funds especially from Matthew because of his trip to Amsterdam, Copenhagen and St. Petersburg. President Paul suddenly fined Mike Mahoney, Larry Ratto, Brian Schott, and George Pacheco for talking during the fines. Mike Mahoney s objection earned him a double fine. Confessing she went to Peter Pan s Neverland with her 7, 4 & 3 year old grandchildren, Gay McDaniels gave $100 to the Dictionary Project. It also cost Mike Mahoney to celebrate his wedding anniversary again. Four members were found published with photos and brief biographies in the new book, Legendary Locals of Castro Valley, Hayward and San Lorenzo by Doris Marcel and the Hayward Area Historical Society.

Andy Krake piped up that he married Marty on July 24, 1976 for which he offered $40 which President Paul challenged and match at $100.
Speaker: Bob Sakai introduced our speaker, Victor Gauthier, addressing construction, fabrication and seismic renovation of the Bay Bridge. Beginning with the chain breaking by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Victor narrated a detailed video describing each feature of the new third largest self anchored suspension bridge from, steel plates, dampers, rivets, slide-in sections and sling jacks. Section by section, he raced through the Yerba Buena S curve, signature span, cable installation process, anchors, hindge/expansion joints, the broken bolt issue and saddle solution, shear link beams in the tower and hindge pipe beams. And yes, there is a glass elevator in the tower, NOT for tours but for maintenance.
