About the Pruneyard:
1995 S. Bascom Avenue, Campbell CA
Located in San Jose near HW880/17 and HW280, the DoubleTree Inn - Pruneyard is centrally located to all of our members in the Santa Clara County. As our party has grown by over %33 this year we found it imperative to expand our annual meeting venue options beyond our traditional places. The DoubleTree Inn offers plenty of parking and is less than a 1/2 mile walk from the Hamilton VTA light rail stop. The Pruneyard also offers a wide variety of dining options so that our guests do not feel confined to just one menu. A full list of the businesses within the Pruneyard are available here.
We hope that this venue will suit the growing needs of the LPSCC and are excited to see everyone soon!
