We hope all the mothers and grandmothers had a wonderful day and got thoroughly spoilt on Sunday. You are special!
Now, many of us, including your humble scribe, believed that to join the CRU3A you had to be 55+ and no longer working full-time. After some research and consulting with our webmaster, Brian, (who knows about such things), I’ve been assured that unlike some other U3A’s, our Clarence River U3A is for people 50 and over who no longer work full time. Our yearly fee is only $25. So that’s great news if you are interested in joining us and have reached your half century! Wait no more.
A big welcome to the four new people who joined us last week. I know you’ll enjoy making good friends while learning new skills. You bring our total enrolment to over 500 this year so our group leaders must be doing something right. If anyone, new or existing member, (oops, nearly said ‘old’) has expertise in a particular area and would like to lead a group, just let us know and we’ll be happy to have you on board.
Members of Ros’ Gardening Group please note that on Friday May 26, your venue for your meeting, (and viewing of beautiful gardens) will take place at North Bent Road, Palmers Channel (at Macintyre’s Field). If you require further information or are interested in joining this amazing, happy group of green thumbs, give Ros a call on 6646 0235.
