On Saturday Aug 29, we have two opportunities for you to make our one particular harbor a better place - the HOMELESS and the ENVIRONMENT.

Help the Homeless
Santee -- Outreach to the Homeless with Kary's Helping Hand - from 9:30-3 (or even just part of that time) - serve food, hand out clothing and blessing bags, and be an ear with heart so they feel heard. For full details, see the SDPHC webpage or email Wendy ([email protected]): https://www.sdphc.org/phlockings/community-outreach-with-karys-helping-hand-2026-aug-29

Help the Environment
Pacific Beach - Help the San Diego Mission Bay Boat & Ski club with their cleanup. Gardening, pruning, and cleaning up the grounds. 8am-12pm. We are in need of w**d whackers, shovels, brooms and most importantly volunteers. If you plan to attend, please text or email Nikki @ 619-820-8290 or [email protected]. Lunch will be served and we are trying to get a head count. SDMBBSC is a huge supporter of San Diego Parrot Head Club. It's where we hold our monthly business meetings. https://sdmbbsc.org/event-6810467?CalendarViewType=1&SelectedDate=8/28/2026

What a fabulous turnout for our first beach cleanup of the year! We had 44 volunteers!!!! Despite early morning rain, the sun came out for a beautiful day. Then we enjoyed brunch at Sandbar.

Thank you everyone who cleaned up our one particular harbor. Next one will be coming this summer. Details to come.

And once again, thank you Dixieline El Cajon for the cleanup supplies. It's the donation that keeps on giving. :)

Here is the flyer for a special kind of concert.
Kirk Lane has been playing in the So. Cal. areas for many years. Whipping up the crowds to both his brand of music, and good Ol' classic Rock and Rock.

He has a stage presence that encourages more than just listening, but also gets people participating. SIng, dance, laugh and enjoy yourself watching Kirk on May 2nd, under the great big Oak Tree.

Bob Clark - President Emeritus SDPHC & Beloved Friend

Bob Clark succumbed to fight with cancer on January 18, 2026. Bob was a cherished friend, dedicated leader, and tireless volunteer whose impact on the San Diego community will be felt for generations. A proud member of the San Diego Parrot Head Club (SDPHC) for 30 years and its president for an extraordinary 27 years, Bob devoted countless hours to service, fellowship, and philanthropy.

Through his leadership, SDPHC supported numerous San Diego charities, raising funds and giving time to causes including beach cleanups, food banks, blood drives, and water stations. Bob was instrumental in organizing many of the club’s signature events, including the Anniversary Party, Charity Dinner, and Pub Crawl, and he fostered lasting partnerships with trop rock bands. He was a familiar and beloved presence at Meeting of the Minds, where his passion for the Parrot Head community shone brightly.

Bob’s commitment to service extended well beyond SDPHC. He was an active member of OMBAC (Old Mission Beach Athletic Club) and the San Diego Mission Bay Boat and Ski Club, and he brought the same steady, mild-mannered leadership to his role as Union President for the National Treasury & Employees Union (NTEU) for over 20 years. He dedicated 38 years of service to the U.S. Customs Service.

Bob is survived by his loving wife of 38 years, Sharon Clark; his son, Randall Clark; and his two stepsons, Tim and Sean Adams. Details regarding services and celebrations of life will be shared at a later time.

Bob’s generosity, quiet strength, and unwavering dedication to others will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
