The Prowler
Don't bother looking for a common bond among the Prowler's topics this week, because there isn't one. Of course, that doesn't mean they aren't worthwhile. Quite the contrary!
One such event is "The Wonder of Girls: Understanding the Hidden Nature of Our Daughters," a free talk by author Michael Gurian on his new book of the same title. It takes place Jan. 16 at 7 p.m. in the Los Gatos Neighborhood Center, 208 E. Main St. Gurian is the best-selling author of The Wonder of Boys. The Los Gatos Union School District Parent Education Council is sponsoring his presentation.
The Prowler can't think of a better excuse for a party than a charitable cause! Readers who feel likewise will enjoy the annual Gala Charity Supper the night of Jan. 26, sponsored by residents and friends of Rinconada Hills, Los Gatos' gated community of townhouses and single-family homes.
The event, in the tract's 100 Avenida del Sol clubhouse, includes a candlelight champagne dinner, music by the Gary Chula Band and an auction. Admission is $40, with proceeds benefiting the Courageous Kids program of the American Cancer Society's local chapter. Organizer Fran Rudé hopes this year's proceeds will be even better than last year's, which were great at $10,000! For tickets, call 408.374.5750 or 408.370.1127.
Speaking of tickets, this cat recommends buying early and often for the Los Gatos Rotary Club's popular Crab Feed, set for Feb. 2 in St. Mary's Church Parish Hall, 219 Bean Ave. Cost is just $30 for adults, $15 for kids. Don't forget the live and silent auctions! For the whole scoop, call 408.370.1674.
