“So many thanks to U3A Benalla and District & those who kept things happening in our period of partial freedom; Bushwalks (Wende Sturgess & Marg Walshe) - Bird-watching (Kathy Costello) - the picnic - and the rest! And to those who will keep things happening as we dive back under (oh blimey Creative Writing is next week - where's the pen...)”
Hear, Hear!
Many members are, within the limits of Stage 3 restrictions, touching base with others through phone and video calls, socially distanced and masked care visits and lakeside walks.
Our Secretary, Geraldine McCorkell, has been keeping in contact with members in outlying regions as well as those who are not able to travel into town, making sure they are coping with the current Stage 3 restrictions.
Margaret Walshe forwarded this photo of U3A member Shirley Vickers, who turned 92 on the 25 August, on the newly completed ramp which allows easy access from her front door. “Shirley was so excited she attached balloons and invited me to view it from the street – ‘Social Distancing’, of course”.
