Our group had a display - took videos, aids, windcheaters etc - in an empty shop window in our main shopping street. It was there for 12 days. [New paragraph] On the 11th April we had a walk along the Campaspe River, leaving 9:30am, returning 10:30am. This enabled people to go as far as they wished at their own pace and join together for morning tea (B.Y.O.) and a Fun Quiz. Ten of our group were joined by our friends. It was most enjoyable. [New paragraph] Our support group would prefer you stick to Arthritis Victoria as a name - succint, self-explanatory and easily recognised by members of the community. We see no need for change. [Next line] Yours sincerely, [Next line] Barbara Wolfe. [Next line] Contact Person.
