President's Message

And all at once, summer collapsed into Fall… Oscar Wilde

As the summer closes, I look forward now to the beautiful hues of Fall and the upcoming Halloween and Thanksgiving Holidays that come with it!  I was thrilled that we were able to hold our first coffee morning of the season in person alongside our Zoomers and, whilst we had a few technical issues, it was so lovely to see everyone who attended.  The importance of connecting with people, our friends and our families, is vital during this difficult time, so I am very grateful to everyone who helped to make this happen.

The Board and I are working hard to keep us all connected and we are again planning on holding our October coffee morning in-person (outside) again, with, we hope, an improved Zoom component.  Be sure to check out the Coffee Morning page of the newsletter for details on the speaker we have coming, it will be an interesting and informative morning and do check out the video link to give you a bit of background prior to attending.

Most of our Activity Groups are now up and running so be sure to contact the group leader to ensure you’re on their email list.  September has already been a busy month, and October looks to be the same!  I look forward to seeing you soon at one of our many events.  Enjoy this beautiful season and the fall foliage!
