Hello Everyone.\u00a0 I hope that this memo finds you safe and healthy and especially connecting with those that matter in your life.\u00a0 It is so important that you keep in contact through telephone, texting, back fence visits, or whatever works for you and your family.\u00a0 It seems so long ago when handshakes or hugs were just a part of our interaction.\u00a0 Now it\u2019s social distancing with masks, gloves, and sanitisers.\u00a0 Such a change in just a year!<\/p>\n
*** The interest in virtual meetings was minimal at best.\u00a0 People must be in front of technology more than before.\u00a0 So for now, we let it rest.<\/p>\n
*** The Wellness Challenge<\/strong> is still on for April, May and June. There is still plenty of time! Track your thirty best days over the three months. We hope that you get out and get some exercise and movement. Check our ARTA news and views magazine, pages 38 to 40 for more information. If you do not receive the magazine, please call or email and we can get a copy for you.
