Groups

RAM sponsored groups are still hibernating due to the COVID-19 pandemic and will hopefully return in June (fingers crossed).

I was hoping to give you some good news, but it is hard to find.

We are following the CA/SLOCO “shelter-at-home” orders, thus there will be no SLO RAM activity requiring attendance until the orders are lifted.I fearlessly predict that will be through April. We will look hard at when to start again, aware that our segment of the population appears especially vulnerable to the serious effects of the coronavirus.

Unlike, it seems, the rest of the world, we continue to be in good financial shape (as long as Madonna Inn continues to waive fees for our non-use) and our liability insurance is in place (although it doesn’t cover coronavirus). Your Executive and Program Committees are staying in touch and we continue talking to Madonna Inn.

We will keep you informed of any changes in a timely way. As we all are aware, our personal priorities are to take care of ourselves and our loved ones. It is consuming and scary, requiring vigilance. But this too shall pass. Then the SLO RAMs will be there for us.
