Congratulations to the Benalla Rural City Council on the great job they have done with the resurfacing of Fawckner Drive outside the Benalla Senior’s Centre. It is a much smoother surface, and the extra car parks provided adjacent to the street are already being well utilised.
On 25th. April Geraldine and I attended the Benalla Anzac Day service, which was very well attended, and laid a wreath on behalf of U3A. After the service we spoke with several U3A members.
John Barry, a senior lawyer until his retirement, is giving two special lectures during May 2022. The first lecture on Friday 6th May at 2pm will be about Powers of Attorney (both Medical and Enduring) whilst the second lecture on Friday 20th May at 2pm will be about making a Will and Estate Planning. John is an excellent speaker and I encourage as many as possible to attend.
A new program called “The Sky’s the Limit” is being investigated and it is hoped that it will commence in August or September 2022. It is for U3A members with an interest in gliding, flying and the history of aviation. The sessions will include guest speakers with backgrounds in aviation with stories to tell. Claire Rudolph has been involved in the initial planning. If you are interested in such a course could you contact Claire on 0428 151 750 please so that we can get an idea of how much interest there is. For a venue this new group hopes to be able to utilize the gliding club as a meeting place so that they can use their IT equipment and also fly the gliding simulator.
