MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – More than 50 people gathered at the brand new Middletown Senior Center to enjoy lunch and listen to District 1 supervisor, Jim Comstock, present his annual “State of the County” address at noon on Wednesday, Jan. 15.
This event marked the inauguration of an auspicious relationship between the Middletown Luncheon Club and the Middletown Senior Center.
The 85-year-old Middletown Luncheon Club moved its monthly lunches, that feature various speakers, to the senior center in an effort to serve more of the South Lake community while utilizing our beautiful new county building.
“The first lunch went very smoothly,” said Senior Center Executive Director Lori Tourville. “Of course, our kitchen and servers at the senior center are accustomed to serving large groups, so they were able to turn out a delicious, well-balanced meal for both our regular seniors and the luncheon club guests.”
Middletown Luncheon Coordinator Beth Rudiger agreed that the event was a success. “The Middletown Luncheon Club is thrilled with this new partnership and the opportunities it offers for both groups. We hope that all the citizens of Lake County will feel welcome to join us for lunch and enjoy the social network, information, and camaraderie provided through this venerable tradition.”
The club meets on the third Wednesday of each month (with the exception of the month of December) from noon to 1 p.m. at the Middletown Senior Center on Washington Street, one block off of Calistoga behind the new park. Each month features a different speaker.
The February luncheon will be on Feb. 19 and will feature Melissa Kinsel, the development director of Adventist Health in Clearlake. Kinsel will be enumerating the many valuable resources available to our community through Adventist Health.
As the seating for lunch is limited, reservations are required and may be made by joining the event posted on the Middletown Luncheon Club Facebook page, by emailing
