Established in 1961 Back when Mission Valley was a dairy farm, milk and cheese products we sold out of our building. In 1961 it was transformed into a roadhouse bar called the Palamino Club. I'm told it had a dance floor and Naugahyde booths surrounding it. After that it was turned into an Irish bar known as the Blarny Stone, the first Blarny stone in San Diego. It went through a few more name changes one was the Dublin Pub, another was The Clubhouse until it became JTs in 2001. We have been blessed by large diverse group of regular patrons from the neighborhood, many highly respected members of the military who have come and gone through the years and the energetic vibe from our proximity to San Diego State University that keeps us popping every night. Whether it be by the luck of the Irish or through the hard work of our friendly and welcoming staff we are thankful for all of those who have found us and continue to support us through the years!

The Lunar New Year Festival is brought to you by the Little Saigon Foundation. The festival aim to promote the most important festival in many Asian cultures. +++ Q: Why does The Little Saigon Foundation of San Diego put on the Lunar New Year Festival? A: The Festival has multiple goals: 1. Celebrate 40 years of Vietnamese Culture in San Diego; hence the Vietnamese flag on the ground in the Cultural Village. It has the color of the South Vietnam people and is now the symbol of the Vietnamese-American community overseas. At the same time, we honor the similar Lunar New Year Traditions of our Asian friend-communities such as Chinese-Americans and Korean-Americans. By doing so, we bring a local cultural-asset into the mainstream. 2. Raise funds for the revitalization of the Little Saigon District for the following: Infrastructure: * Freeway exit sign pointing to the District * More trash bins (currently there are no trash bins at the very heart of the district) * "Walkable sidewalks". Currently side walks are broken, unattractive, dirty. * More Parking * Landscaping, trees, grasses Economic development: * More events and activities to draw people to the district. * Ask the officials for "help" with creating a"Night Market". Like one in Vietnam where people hang-out weekly or nightly. The purpose will be to extend business hours, create a "night life", and drive up the economy. Social services: * Establishing Community Center that helps people with language assistance, job search, computer usage, youth leadership,voter registration and education. 3. Help create jobs and business opportunities for sponsors, vendors, and individuals. 4. Create a cultural tourist destination and enhance San Diego's image as a great place to live, work, and play! 5. Create opportunities for government officials to interact with and reach out to the public. 6. Create new leaders of the youth from the under-served, under-represented population THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE LITTLE SAIGON FOUNDATION'S LUNAR NEW YEAR FESTIVAL AT QUALCOMM STADIUM

The Seany Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded to carry on the legacy of Sean Lewis Robins and his battle with Ewing sarcoma, a rare childhood cancer that affects soft tissue and bone. The Foundation was Sean’s vision. He first expressed the desire to start a foundation to help advocate for other kids who had cancer in 2005. He even named it ‘The Seany Foundation.’ After Sean’s death on November 17, 2006, the Robins family began working on making Sean’s dream a reality. To date, The Seany Foundation has raised over one million dollars in the fight against childhood cancer. In the early years, The Seany Foundation focused much of its efforts on raising money to fund cutting-edge research. The Foundation partnered with UCSD to fund two Pediatric Cancer Research Fellows. One fellow studied the complexities of solid tumors and the other stroke risk in kids and teens with cancer. The goal of such projects is to gain more knowledge about the way the disease affects children so that better treatments and possible cures can be created. Much of the successes in childhood cancer treatment are due to clinical trials. ‘A clinical study involves research using human volunteers (also called participants) that is intended to add to medical knowledge,’ explains clinicaltrials.gov. Sean partook in a number of these studies. Currently, The Seany Foundation helps fund a Clinical Research Associate at Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego to enroll pediatric patients with cancer in potentially lifesaving clinical trials. Fortunately, due to clinical trials and other knowledge-seeking programs, cancer survival rates for children are on the rise. According to the National Cancer Institute, the chance of a child surviving cancer in the 1970s was only 58%. Thanks to improved treatments the number of kids surviving cancer jumped to 80% in later years. (cancer.gov). Still, the amount of children diagnosed with the disease continues to rise. (cancer.gov). This has lead to a large increase in the number of childhood cancer survivors in the world. It’s for this reason that The Seany Foundation has chosen to change its overall focus from research to projects that help kids cope with the emotional effects of cancer. Today, The Seany Foundation’s main goal is to bring relief and happiness to kids struggling with cancer and to their families, particularly siblings. Cancer is a family disease, and it affects everyone who loves the person with the disease. (ncbi.nih.gov).
