The Committee for Restoration of the

Beebe and Robert Senkewicz have agreed to present at our upcoming
General Membership Meeting in April 2008. The Mission San Jose General
Membership meeting is scheduled for April 26th at 1:30 PM in the
reconstructed Mission San Jose church.
The April 26th meeting will be preceded by
a walking tour of the historic mission period archaeological sites
located on the property of St. Joseph/Old Mission San Jose. Join
Archaeologist Rick Thompson as he leads a walk to the historic Mission
Period Dams and reservoir located along Mission Creek.
Meet Rick in the parish parking lot
adjacent to the Mission Cemetery at 10 AM. The walk should last about
90 minutes, leaving plenty of time to enjoy lunch in one of our Mission
San Jose District eateries before the 1:30 PM meeting. Sturdy walking
shoes are recommended. Please be considerate of your fellow guests and
leave pets and younger children at home.
Parking: Free parking is available on
site in the St. Joseph parking lot located just north of the Old
mission, enter from Mission 'Boulevard.
Restaurants: There are several restaurants
within walking distance (or short drive) from the Mission. We recommend
the following member businesses along Mission Blvd: The Cheese Taster
