Dear San Diego Chapter Members,
I am excited to announce the 2025 San Diego Chapter Calendar of Events!! I would like to take the time to also welcome those additional Chaine members from the La Jolla, Newport Beach and Salt Lake City Chapters that will be on our email lists and may join us from time to time. We will gladly welcome all Chaine members as we get together at our SD Chapter events in 2025!
As an FYI, the 2025 calendar will be focused on our Chapter events, but I have also included the Chaine National and International Events provided on the national Chaine website and Cuvee newsletter. In addition, I have included a few non-Chaine related events that may be of interest since we are a group that loves food & wine. Note, I have included links were available.
Not all details are finalized for events occurring later in the year so I will be periodically sending an updated calendar as details get finalized. Lastly, I may from time to time offer 2-3 smaller “pop-up” events throughout the year. Now, please find our Chapter’s 2025 Calendar of Events below:
