About San Diego's Costume Guild

SDCG - These are only some of the members.  You may meet other members at events that choose not to attend meetings that's how stress free it is to be a member.

It's easy to be a member, no fees or dues just meetings that you look forward to for dinner, fun and socializing.  Meetings are held every other month. Visit their website. San Diego Costume Guild

  The meetings are currently taking place at Sizzlers Steak house at 7:00 to discuss past and future events and become acquainted.   We receive a list of yearly events and keep in touch with each other via a Yahoo Group e-mail.  At meetings and via the Yahoo Group you can get advice or give it, ask or answer questions about costuming dilemmas and inform members of events you come across, that the group is unaware of.  You can attend all or any event you choose and hopefully you will run into other members there to partner with or meet new friends from other costuming groups. Costumes are not required at meetings since it's for dinner and socializing but hats are encouraged.
