MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – Caity Bowe is the featured speaker at this month’s Middletown Luncheon Club luncheon, which will be held from noon to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 18.

Lunch will be served at the Middletown Senior Center at 21256 Washington St., behind the new park off Calistoga. 

Bowe, 16, is a resident of Hidden Valley Lake, and a homeschooled high school senior who will matriculate at the University of Minnesota in the fall.

She spent three weeks last summer volunteering in a small town in Africa.

“I knew there was more to life than just sitting at home all summer and I was ready to see it,” she said.

Bowe chose this project, raised funding for her trip and traveled by herself.

This independent young woman will share her experience living near the Anlona elementary school in Ghana and helping build and teach there.

Space is limited for lunch. Please make your reservation by sending an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or calling the Middletown Senior Center at 707-987-3113 (specify that you are with the Luncheon Club). 

All ages are welcome at only $5 per person. Enjoy beef with broccoli, brown rice, and pineapple fluff salad. Dessert and beverages are included. This month’s serving group is the Middletown Lionesses.

You are also welcome to come hear Bowe for free without buying lunch.
