Perranwell
Meetings
A
proposed New Constitution has been put into the December
newsletter, together with the announcement of a Special
General Meeting at 10 am on Wednesday February 3rd. in
Perranwell Village Hall. David Neale has proposed an
amendment, and this was sent out in the January newsletter. If
we have a quorum at the Special General Meeting, there will be votes
on the amendment and on the new Constitution. If the final
version is approved by a two-thirds majority, it can be
sent to the Charity Commission for their blessing and will
then be in place for the AGM in April.
Coffee
will be served earlier than usual at 9.30am on February 3rd. and
the Special Meeting will start at 10am or soon after (we
cannot start until we have 100 members signed in to make up the
quorum). We hope to finish the Meeting at 10.30 or 10.45, then
Des Prouse is going to give us an illustrated talk about "Goonhilly's
Past and Possible Future".
Falmouth
Meetings
Monthly
meetings
of the Falmouth Group of U3A Carrick are held on the third Wednesday of
each month at St.
Mary’s Church Room, Killigrew Street, Falmouth for the convenience
of those who find it difficult to attend the Perranwell meetings. These
Falmouth meetings are coordinated by Doris Jeary and Pamela Dinsmore
and commence at 10.30 am, following initial coffee and chat from 10.00
am. As with the
other monthly meetings, a Guest Speaker is invited to address the meeting.
Details of
speakers and topics for each of these meetings are to be found either in the current edition of
the Newsletter or on the Diary page.
Members
may attend any or all Monthly meetings as they so wish.
There is no charge for attendance at these meeting, but admission is
restricted to U3A members, guests and those interested in
joining the U3A. (See
"New Members" page)
Truro Meetings These meetings
are held in Truro Town Hall, Boscawen Street, on the fourth Tuesday of
each month and start
at 2.00pm, where the format is to have a speaker to offer a
presentation on a subject of local interest. As with the
other monthly meetings, there is a cup of tea and
time to catch up with friends before the start of the meeting.
Alan
Jewell, the Town Cryer of Redruth, is coming along to our Truro
meeting in the Town Hall on March 23rd. to talk about the
"Cornish Migration", His wife is coming with him, and
they are going to do music and verse as well as ordinary
talking. It's thought this would be good for the Town Hall,
where the acoustics are still a problem!
Please
Note: Our May
Truro meeting will be held one week earlier, on 18th May
