If you are not already a “Friend” (my wife and I have been “Friends” (of the Med School!)) for several years, please collect a brochure from the registration desk at U3A courses and see what you can do to keep Otago’s reputation at the top of the country's rankings.

ParkingLeith Valley is a popular parking spot for people who used to park on the road now taken over by the cycle way. That doesn’t leave a lot of spaces for U3A — especially for our big courses. You can help the situation by car pooling. People who park on the clearway, opposite the Bowling Club, will likely be ticketed by DCC. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
