End of OLLI Reno News

OLLI Reno News will cease publication on May 18.  

Five years ago I created OLLI Reno News as a personal gift / service to our organization.  After much consideration, I no longer have the time, energy, or ​financial ​resources to continue that service, which includes the website, informational emails, calendar, and archive of semester catalogs.

If you are not receiving the OLLI Weekly emails now being sent out by UNR's Extended Studies, you will need to send an email to olli@unr.edu, asking to be put on their mailing list.

Thank you for your enthusiasm for this independent and UNofficial publication for OLLI members.
