Hello Leonie, I¡¯m sorry to hear about David¡¯s diagnosis, something I¡¯m familiar with. You may well be in the best town in NSW for dealing with dementia, assuming you¡¯re still in Kiama. Plenty of people and resources there to support both of you and your family. I know some of them, so let me know if I can help in any way.?

Hi John
This sounds great.> We certainly want to be added to the list of people coming. We both really enjoy these reunions.?
Just a quick note - Dave has been diagnoses with early onset Alzeimers and Lueybody desease (another type of Dementia). This is all been since the operations on his neck.He is presently on Exelon patches to help the memory & delusions. The dose has just been doubled - unbelievable the difference these have made.
I'll keep in contact in case we have to cancel.?
Thank you all for all your work in putting this together.? You are marvelous.
Cheers
Leonie Stott

Hi All,
?
As many of you are aware there was talk at last year¡¯s reunion that we should try for a reunion every two years. To that end? a small committee consisting of John & Jo Rees, John Irwin, and myself with apologies from Pete Fraser met last Friday morning in Leeton to discuss things we might do for next year¡¯s event.
?
The date for Gala Day 2026 is yet to be confirmed by the P&C but we believe it will most likely be the 2nd or 3rd weekend in March¡.with the 2nd being the most likely. To that end Jo has pencilled in a booking for the Saturday night dinner at the Hydro. She has also got them to pencil in 10 rooms for the weekend of the 14th but we must stay Friday and Saturday night which would certainly work¡we will also look at doing similar for a couple of other motels.? Hopefully it will be the 2nd weekend because the 3rdweekend is booked out for a wedding at the Hydro¡so fingers crossed.
?
We thought too that we had probably done the school tours etc on the Friday? enough in recent times so we will simply aim to join the OYU reunion on Friday night and do a partner¡¯s dinner at Benvenuti. Saturday we are thinking maybe a run to Gala Day in the morning and maybe a visit to the Whitton Malthouse for lunch or afternoon tea followed by our Saturday night dinner. Sunday morning ¨C catch up for breakfast at Peddlers which is just opposite the Leeton PO.
?
So stay tuned and pencil in the suggested dates into your respective calendars and we will confirm as soon as possible.
?
John E and committee.
