SDAP Bulletin Board

At SDAP meetings, members often have interesting and insightful information of local interest and/or about their local philanthropy projects. As a result this is SDAP's virtual "bulletin board" where you can submit topics for other members. To submit a topic, please email information to info@sdaph.org. Please ensure to include your name and chapter information.

Topic	Information
Legally Blonde The Musical Rocks!	Snaps for "Legally Blonde the Musical". SDAP Member, Laurel Latto, saw it and wanted to let everyone know how fabulous it is. The musical is smart and fun. It is well written. The cast members are fantastically witty, and bring high energy to all their roles. You might find that you like it better than the movie and will leave wanting to see it again. Right now, it is only playing in NYC on Broadway so plan ahead and secure tickets if you are going to be in New York. After the show, cast members were available for autographs and pictures. Laurel got some cheesy sorority girl poses in classic "squeeze and scrunch" pose.
