U3A business being conducted via Zoom. Strathalbyn's delegate, Ingrid Johansson can be seen on the bottom row. 😄

📌U3A SA President Derek Bowman led the first fully Zoom meeting for delegates and visitors this morning - Tuesday 15th April 2025. The majority of previous Zoom meetings have been hybrid ones (in-person and Zoom).

➡️16 U3A Member Organizations (MOs) out of 20 participated. Reports from U3A SA Exec Claire Eglinton (U3A SA Secretary & President Lower North) and Paddy McKay (Treasurer of U3A SA & Campbelltown) stimulated positive conversations. Angela Bowmann was endorsed as the new U3A SA Assistant Treasurer by the Treasurer Paddy McKay.

⭐A very productive meeting thanks to the two Tech's John Travers (U3A SA Webmaster & representative for U3A Adelaide), and Helen Elix (U3A Murraylands delegate & President, and U3A SA Exec), who assisted with Zoom skills/etiquette. All delegates and visitors were active with positive feedback and some great questions.

✅Interactions and networking via Zoom with delegates from MOs proved to be very beneficial. We look forward to more Zoom interactions from the comfort of our own homes.
