9 DVOS is moving in Januar Our current meeting place, the Contra Costa Water District Board room, will not be available to us next year due to earthquake retrofitting. Beginning in January, we will meet at the newly rebuilt Pleasant Hill Community Center in the McHale Room. Some of you will remember this as the location where we held our Fall Show for many years prior to the rebuild. In addition to changing our location, we will also be changing from the second Thursday to the third Thursday of each month. The Community Center is located at 320 Civic Dr. in Pleasant Hill (near the Police station and the YMCA.) 9
