PATRONS | Spring 2016 30 IN YOUR COMMUNITY Torrance Memorial Medical Center's Young Physicians and Professionals Alli- ance (YPPA) gathered at the Palos Verdes Estates home of Dawn and Bo Kaplan for a private, members-only event of dinner and cocktails. Guests mingled and enjoyed a casual evening meant to recognize members for their commitment to the YPPA. For more information call 310-517-4728 or visit torrancem emorial.org/YPPA. YPPA Fall Event Recognizes Commitment Local hikes have proven to be one of the more popular YPPA events, provid- ing members and prospective members a chance to get to know one another while enjoying the great outdoors. In January, joined by some four-legged friends, the group hosted its second hike in scenic Lunada Bay with views overlooking the Pacifi c Ocean and our beautiful coastline. The nearly two- hour hike was led by Torrance Memorial Medical Center's own cheerleader, Laura Schenasi. In case you missed out on this one, additional hikes are being planned for the spring and summer.
