Come join your fellow Villagers for a docent- tour through the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden! With its lush green lawns and vibrant, colorful blooms, it’s easy to see why this garden is known as "America‘s Best Rose Garden." There’s almost always a variety in full bloom, showcasing over 3,500 plants and 189 different kinds of roses. What was once a prune orchard is now a 5 1/2-acre paradise, drawing visitors from all over the world every year. It’s truly a special spot to enjoy nature’s beauty!

Hello Sequoia Village Members & Volunteers,
We‘re gathering for a Drop-In Dinner at Victoria‘s Kitchen, a seafood restaurant, with a delicious, varied menu . It‘s in the location that was Whispers previously so it will be fun to see what they‘ve done with the place. This is an informal social event where we can share a meal and get to know each other a bit more (pay for your own meal). There is NO need to register in advance. If you are a Village member who needs a ride, call the VSMC office at 650-260-4569 to arrange your ride.

Enjoy a peaceful 1 1/2-mile nature walk along a scenic unpaved trail. Expect a few steps and some uneven spots—just enough to keep things interesting! Bring your sense of adventure and your love of the outdoors.

Join members and their guests at Mullin‘s Steak House for their Fiesta dinner and enjoy some delicious Mexican food.

Join your fellow Villagers for a fun-filled karaoke afternoon led by Yoko Kanamatsu—a time to sing along, share laughs, and enjoy some great tunes together!
Did you know? Karaoke comes from the Japanese words for “empty orchestra,” referring to a music track without vocals where you become the star! Whether you’re belting out your favorite song or just tapping your toes and cheering others on, there’s a place for everyone.
Let’s make some musical memories together!
