Health and Weight Management (Magnetic Island)
Would you like to meet with others to discuss health and weight issues or listen to the occasional presentation by a guest speaker? At Magnetic Island our members benefit from sharing issues with like-minded people and comparing notes on different matters, including related topics, such as money matters. And don’t overlook the benefits of working your lungs with the Recorder Ensemble or the U3A Singers
