Hello, and welcome to our new members.
When I talk to members of other u3a’s I always say that we have a vibrant and interesting u3a here in the Stewartry. I think that anyone reading our monthly newsletters would surely agree. This month is no exception, and I wish to thank all the contributors for their time in writing the various reports. Our last excursion of the year, to Edinburgh for Christmas, is filling quickly so please reserve your seat sooner rather than later. Our excursion to Glasgow at the end of this month is now fully booked. With our AGM in November fast approaching we are still seeking volunteers to help us run our u3a. The old saying of ‘many hands make light work’ is very true, so please come forward and offer your services by contacting me either via email or at this month’s Members Meeting. This month’s Members Meeting is on Tuesday 22 October. Our talk is on the area of St. Pancras, London made famous by the construction of the Railway Station in the 1860’s by the Midland Railway Co. Please join us for this fascinating talk about the history of this important area which has touched many lives.
Stephen Bullock, Chair
