On Thursday13th January the Vall del Pop U3A held their first General Assembly for 2022 with a good turn-out of members keen to renew their Association membership and to learn about the trips and events planned for the first part of the year. After the official business the members relaxed to hear a talk, by Vernon Pearce, on his experiences as a Radio Presenter, not a DJ although music does form a part of the presentations.
The Vall del Pop U3A continued their early season Christmas celebrations with a Christmas themed General assembly last Thursday 2nd December. The business side of the GA was quickly dispensed with so that the partying could begin.
They used to say ‘post early for Christmas’, but the internet and Brexit are rapidly reducing this task. So, with more covid variants about, the Vall del Pop U3A decided it was time to ‘Party Early This Christmas’ and held their Christmas dinner at Pepe’s restaurant in Alcalali on 23rd November – the start of thirty days of partying.
There was a good turnout at our second General Assembly back at the Polivalent in Murla last Thursday 4th November despite the wintry turn in the weather. The association business was quickly dispensed with reports that our membership numbers have continued to increase and the Groups are mostly all back up and running although some, such as Bridge are looking for more members.
Vall del Pop U3A is very proud to have achieved their 15th Anniversary.
In celebration, on Wednesday 13th October, 41 members attended a celebratory dinner at the Black Apple restaurant in Xalo, where the TCET team had arranged for a hog roast with Greek Meze for starters and a selection of delicious cakes as postre and entertainment by Matt Mason [Photo].
