Dear Members,

The next Katikati U3A General Monthly meeting will be held on Wednesday 10th May, at the Community Hub (the Centre - Patuki Manawa) next to the Library, from 10am-12noon.

The main speaker will be John Clements, the current chair of the Katikati/Waihi Beach Community Board.  John has had a lifetime experience as a manager and management consultant in many parts of the world. 

Here is our chance to understand where the community board fits in to local democracy, relationships with the Western Bay Council, and what plans lie ahead for our community board and our district.

Before morning tea at 10:30am, Francis Young will talk about the artefacts found by archaeological excavations at the Kauri Point pa, and what they can tell us about early Maori occupation of the area.

All are welcome to these monthly meetings and there is a $2 door charge to defray costs. Thank you to members who have renewed their U3A subscription, which was due by 31 March.  

You will find the March/April Tauranga U3A Newsletter  at  www.u3atauranga.kiwi.nz

Kind regards

Pam Mazoyer.
