Starting from humble beginnings with 45 members in 1993, U3A Pine Rivers now offers a variety of classes and activities to more than 1000 members. Read about the History of U3A Pine Rivers.
On Thursday 26 September 2024 Jenny Everson was awarded Life Membership for meritorious service to U3A Pine Rivers Inc. Jenny is a wonderful asset to the organisation from when she joined in October 2018.
Jenny has been a dedicated volunteer in many ways including researching and directing the COVID advice and protocols, Secretary, Grants’ Officer, a much-valued member of the U3A Network Queensland 2022 Conference Committee, Treasurer and member of the group that researched and developed the establishment of the Member Wizard database and adoption of the associated financial package.
The Committee and Members of U3A Pine Rivers Inc. thank Jenny for her many years’ service and commitment to our organisation by granting her Life Membership. We do hope Jenny continues to enjoy U3A Pine Rivers for many years to come.
The Third Age is the best time of your life!
For more information, please call us on 3880 6677 or drop into the U3A Pine Rivers Centre, 1480 Anzac Ave, Kallangur.
Reception is open Monday to Friday 9 am to 12 midday.
Everyone who "works' at U3A Pine Rivers is a volunteer. Without the people who give their time freely, this organisation would not exist.
There are some positions, or roles, that require some level of committment.
All of these roles would benefit from an assistant, or a backup person. Do you have an interest, or skills in these areas? Speak to a member of the committee about how you could help. Consider joining the committee, which meets once a month, or nominating for an executive position in the future.
There are many other ways you could offer your time to help U3A Pine Rivers. For many small tasks you could spend a few extra minutes before or after your class. There is no need to allocate another day unless you wish to.
Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes, and the community, but the benefits can be even greater for you, the volunteer. Volunteering and helping others can reduce stress, combat depression, keep you mentally stimulated, and provide a sense of purpose.
Have a chat to anyone on the committee, about how you could give some of your time to help others in U3A, and yourself.
