We have enjoyed meeting so many of you at the Joint Ivy Alum Night at the SF Opera in June, and at our outdoor events in Saratoga and Mount Diablo in July. For the month of August, we have organized a number of outdoor, in-person events, including the Annual World Dog Surfing Championship, as well as the inaugural joint Ivy Summer Vineyard Party at Folktale Winery. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing you soon!
