Phil is also President of the Kiwanis Club of Santa Monica, an organization that benefits children worldwide and provides scholarships for local teens. He has served as Santa Monica Recreation & Parks Commissioner for over 13 years and is now on the Arts Commission.

Phil is committed to preserving the unique quality of life in
Santa Monica for all residents and for those who will live here in the future. Join us to celebrate the spirit of volunteerism as the Santa Monica Elks honor Phil Brock March 29 at 6:00PM. Enjoy great conversation and a home-cooked Tri-Tip Dinner from chef Gabriel (Salmon or Vegetarian Dinner is also available by advance request). It only costs $20 to attend!
