Dear Victorian Scheyvillians, I am writing to advise that the Victorian annual dinner, scheduled for 12th June, has been cancelled. This will come as no surprise with the current medical advice and restrictions likely to extend far beyond this date – especially for those in our age group.

Depending on the circumstances, consideration may be given to rescheduling the event much later into the year – but only if this poses no risk whatsoever to our membership and is fully in keeping with all government Coronavirus dictates. Health remains our highest priority.

National Reunion – Coronavirus Impact

Dear Scheyvillians, much has changed since my last communication on the future of the October National Reunion.

In his April 3rd press release Australia’s Prime Minister, Hon Scott Morrison MP, said:

“We will be living with this virus for at least six months, so social distancing measures to slow the spread of this virus must be sustainable for at least that long to protect Australian lives”.

Bearing this in mind , the Association Executive has further reviewed the situation and reached a decision to reschedule the Reunion for next year.

Of paramount consideration is the fact that our membership is in the age group most vulnerable to the virus. Deferral of the reunion will afford the best protection for us all.

Arrangements and timing for 2021 will be as originally set down for this year.

Frank Miller
Chairman, OTU Association
