POPULAR LOCAL AUTHOR Nicola Harrison will be the guest at the April Author’s Luncheon of the Westminster-Fountain Valley-Huntington Beach AAUW.

The Westminster-Fountain Valley-Huntington Beach AAUW’s 31st Annual Author’s Luncheon
is set for Saturday, April 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Mile Square Golf Course, 10401
Warner Ave., Fountain Valley. Proceeds from this event will be used to send middle school girls to Tech Trek summer camp and to supply scholarships for women to continue their education.

This year’s guest author is popular local author, Nicola Harrison who will talk about why the
heroines of her three novels all are trailblazers in each of three decades of the 1900s. She will
sign books both before and after the luncheon. Her recent novels include “The Show Girl,”
“Montauk,” and “Hotel Laguna.”

The latter, published in 2023, has been described as “an engaging piece of historical fiction set in Laguna Beach just after WWII.”

A former Tech Trek attendee will speak about why this summer camp opportunity is important to
further girls’ interest in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) professions.

Additionally, the event includes a silent auction, an opportunity drawing, and a served lunch. The
luncheon includes grilled marinated chicken breast, chive mashed potatoes, garden vegetables,
and the restaurant’s famous Decadent Chocolate Brownie dessert.

Price of tickets is $80, due by April 1, 2024. No walk-ins. This is a non-refundable event.
