This exciting annual event with Vegas-style dealers draws experienced poker players and welcomes newcomers to join the fun with free lessons. Prizes awarded to the top six poker players, and each participant will enjoy a boxed dinner from High Tide Bottle Shop & Kitchen, with a full bar available to purchase beverages.

With an 11-2 record, the CHS girls lacrosse team is in pursuit of its first ever Open Division Championship this May. The team is currently ranked first in San Diego, sixth in California, and 124 in USA National (as of April 20), according to laxnumbers.com. This is a young team looking to break records and rank up with the historically dominate East Coast teams.
