DATES TO REMEMBER

.

Monday 19 October – 2026 AGM

.

WODEN SENIORS AGM

.

2026 Annual General Meeting

Date:   Monday 19 OCTOBER 2026

Time:   11.00 AM

.

Just in case you had forgotten….

.

This year the meeting will be followed by a speaker and lunch as part of our ongoing Lunch and Learn series.

.

Our neighbour and valued Club supporter, Dr. Haisong Wang, will give a talk on seasonal care with respect to seniors’ health with a Chinese medicine perspective and there will be an opportunity for questions following the talk.

.

Following Haisong’s talk,  lunch will be served.

.

A quorum of financial members is required for the AGM to proceed and we encourage as many members who can do so to attend.  The meeting will be short – and as advised above, will be followed by a talk and lunch.

.

There is no limit to the numbers for the meeting – and as mentioned above, we must have a quorum of financial members present for the meeting to proceed.  And again no limit and no need to book for Haisong’s talk.

.

HOWEVER BOOKINGS FOR LUNCH ON THE DAY ARE ESSENTIAL for catering purposes and will cost the usual $7 or an activity  voucher.  Bookings at the office as usual.

.

AND THERE ARE NOW REGULAR MONDAY LUNCHES

.

Monday 13th October – what’s for lunch?  Everyone’s favourite, Pasta bake.  $10 for a delicious lunch and good company.

.

Today’s drivel….

.

We live in society where a pizza gets to your house before the police

If I agreed with you we’d both be wrong

If you think nobody cares if you’re alive, try missing a few payments…

A bank is a place that will lend you money – if you can prove that you don’t need it

We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public

Evening News is where they begin with “Good evening” and then proceed to tell you why it isn’t

War does not determine who is right, only who is left
