Welcome to SLORAM
SLORAM (San Luis Obispo Retired Active Men) is a social club established to help men who have retired from full-time employment renew friendships, establish new relationships, and enjoy participation in a variety of programs and activities. We are entirely a social club; we meet for fun and enjoyment, and have no fund-raising, philanthropic, political or religious affiliation. There are two regular SLORAM meetings, our monthly Luncheon and our weekly Coffee Cabinet, both held in the Garden Room at the Madonna Inn in San Luis Obispo. Club-sponsored groups meet regularly to enjoy activities such as golf, hiking, wine tasting, a book club, and day-trips to places of interest.
Check out the Day Trips page to see photos of recent and past outings.
