The group plays once a month leading up to its finale two-day event in April.<\/p>\n<p>Next month&#8217;s event is tentatively scheduled for Nov. 12. However, the venue is yet to be determined.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the CWGA, contact Noriko Togawa at 287-0027, Lou Kim at 483-5255, Terry Tudela at 483-1761, Lorraine Babauta at 287-0621, or Bennet Seman at 483-0126.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Walter J.
