At Hawkhurst u3a, beside our Interest Groups, we also have a full programme of other events.
Monthly Meetings - (Zoom talks have now stopped until the Autumn.)
For our meeting on Thursday 2nd June we are planning to celebrate The Queen's Platinum Jubilee with an informal gathering. In true 1950s style this will rely on members bringing along some small contribution e.g.cakes to enjoy with our coffee or if you have any bunting/flags we could decorate the hall for the duration of the meeting. If you have any memorabilia you could show we could exchange memories over coffee and enlighten the younger members about how we celebrated the Queen's Accession and Coronation. The "dress code" (which is entirely optional) will be purple and silver or red/white/blue.
Outings There is also a series of outings which can last just a few hours or a whole day; these include Blue Badge tours, theatre trips, concerts, exhibitions and visits to historic buildings. Details are listed here when an event is planned.
The Gardening Group is organising a coach outing to RHS Wisley on Thursday 30th June departing from outside Waitrose Hawkhurst at 9am and returning around 6pm. The approximate cost of the coach will be £17.50 including drivers tip, depending on numbers of seats booked. Entrance to the Gardens is free because we have affiliated membership. The Gardens should be looking spectacular in June and there have been many new areas opened in the last couple of years. If you would like to join us on this summer outing please email Sue Flanagan at saflanagan14@hotmail.com
Social Events Of equal importance is the Social side of Hawkhurst u3a. Coffee and Cake mornings and Pub Lunches are regular events, and gatherings such as a Winter Quiz or Summer Garden Party are planned. These social functions will also offer members the opportunity to meet and talk to other members from different Groups. Details are listed below.
