OLLI-CSUF Continental Breakfast and Open Meeting
Saturday, August 8 •
Continental Breakfast • 9:00 a.m. • Shapiro Wing ABCD
OLLI Open Meeting • 10:00 a.m. • Mackey Auditorium
This is an opportunity to bring prospective members to the Ruby Gerontology Center and to get a preview of the year’s upcoming activities. There will be a special continental breakfast prior to the open meeting, so plan to come early.
A Taste of OLLI on Saturday, October 10, 9:00 a.m. - noon, Shapiro wing and Mackey auditorium featuring Hermine Hilton, America's Memory Motivator
An all new "Taste of OLLI" program will feature a sampling of OLLI programs and a continental breakfast combined with a lecture by the noted mistress of memory, Hermine Hilton. Ms. Hilton spoke to an overflowing audience in 2008 and is expected to be a big draw for our new Taste of OLLI program this year. OLLI members will be asked to help distribute invitations to friends and acquaintances. It promises to be a great event which should result in drawing new members to OLLI on our way to reaching 1,000 members and an opportunity for an additional $1 million grant to CSUF from the Osher Foundation.
