MEETINGS – GENERAL INFO

As of September 30, 2024, Coronado Thunderbird activities are suspended indefinitely. Primary reasons for the suspension are lack of new volunteers for Board positions and the loss of KAFB access for Thunderbird members.

We normally hold our Monthly Member Meetings – 

ON THE SECOND TUESDAY OF EACH MONTH **

A talk about the BioPark
Socializing over a meal
Square dancing!

Monthly meetings continue at TOMASITA’S restaurant. TOMASITA’S is on the west side of I-25, south of Jefferson St. Since Pan American Fwy on the west side of I-25 is southbound only, it’s best to go to Jefferson St. where it crosses I-25 and go south on Pan American Fwy to TOMASITA’S. It’s near Century Rio Plex 24 and Cold Stone Creamery.

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE LUCKY WINNERS OF OUR DRAWINGS FOR A FREE MEAL AT THE OUR MONTHLY MEMBER MEETINGS, YOU WILL RECEIVE A MEAL VOUCHER FROM OUR TREASURER. THE VOUCHER IS GOOD FOR A MEAL AT A FUTURE MEETING.

TREAT YOUR VOUCHER AS IF IT IS CASH – LOST OR DESTROYED VOUCHERS WILL NOT BE REPLACED

LUNCH – ONLY $14.50 – $16.50. Please be aware of the revised price.

As of September 30, 2024, Coronado Thunderbird activities are suspended indefinitely. Primary reasons for the suspension are lack of new volunteers for Board positions and the loss of KAFB access for Thunderbird members.

SOCIAL TIME/MEAL – 11am

BUSINESS MEETING – 12:00 Noon

NEW MEETING LOCATION: TOMASITA’S RESTAURANT at 4949 Pan American Fwy NE


Hey, if you are missing “Meals To Go” from the recently closed Mountain View Club, perhaps you can order take-out from this TOMASITA’S menu ! Here is the TOMASITA’S menu for our August 13, 2024 meeting.
