Sammy’s treats teachers Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza chain will celebrate the dedication of local educators Tuesday, May 5 during Teacher Appreciation Day. On that day, all area Sammy’s will offer a “thank you” to San Diego teachers with a free tapas menu item with purchase. Educators need only flash their current teacher to savor any of 18 tapas. Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza has restaurants in La Jolla, at Liberty Station in Point Loma and downtown, among others. For a list of all stores and locations, visit www.sammyspizza.com. La Jolla Woman’s Club will hold Bridal Showcase La Jolla Woman’s Club members plan a Bridal Exclusive Showcase for Sunday, May 17, from noon to 4 p.m., gathering area wedding vendors at the club in an effort to help brides plan their big day. “It’s the first time La Jolla has had anything like this,” said La Jolla Woman’s Club member and event director Betsy Ring. “A bride could plan her entire wedding.” The doors will open to brides with displays of various wedding vendors, from caterers and photographers to belly dancers, tents and harpists, Ring said. La Jolla Women’s Club rents its historical site to wedding parties, calling the gated location on Silverado Street “just one block from the Pacific Ocean… a peaceful and beautiful environment” that wedding parties can use for weddings and receptions. According to Ring, brides-to-be who attend the event can choose from locations other than the club. Representatives from locations such as the Empress Hotel will exhibit their wedding packages, she said. Bird Rock’s Bridal Bar will also be on hand. The event, located at La Jolla Woman’s Club, 715 Silverado St., is free, but Ring asks that anyone wanting to attend RSVP to (858) 454-2354 or [email protected].
