Our Easter Raffle was a great success, having raised just under $1,000.00. A BIG THANK YOU to members JUNE HURST (who donated the prize of a magnificent basket of Easter Eggs) and GLENIS BROOKING (the two Finance subcommittee members) who organised this and especially to the many members who sold the tickets and THE WINNER IS: LYN HUTCHISON, who is a long-standing U3A member currently studying Advanced German.
On the subject of thank you, a HUGE VOTE OF THANKS goes to ANDREW and DENISE STEVENS, very long-standing members and frequent past committee members, playing a solid part each in the development of our U3A, as they have put their money where their belief in the value of U3A is by making an unsolicited DONATION OF $2,000.00. They both continue their support of our U3A with practical advice and suggestions. THANK YOU BOTH !
So let’s all get involved and make this term a Social, Fun, Educative and Healthy success.
Sincere best wishes to all from your Management Committee
