President's Message

As I begin my 2026-27 term as President of Extended Learning Opportunities (ELO), I would like to extend my sincere thanks to everyone who has volunteered to serve on our new Board. ELO is entirely volunteer-driven, and the enthusiasm, dedication, and generosity of our Board members are what make it possible for us to continue offering two outstanding series of lectures each year.

​

I would also like to express our heartfelt appreciation to those Board members who have recently completed their terms. Your time, commitment, and many contributions have helped shape ELO into the vibrant organization it is today. Your efforts have enriched our lecture series and strengthened our community of lifelong learners.

​

ELO offers two lecture series each year, each consisting of nine engaging presentations by distinguished speakers. Our topics are deliberately eclectic, reflecting the wide-ranging interests and curiosity of our members.

​

We meet every Thursday at the Erin Legion, beginning promptly at 10:00 a.m. Each one-hour lecture is followed by a coffee break, giving members an opportunity to socialize and discuss the presentation. We then reconvene for a lively question-and-answer session with the speaker.

Our next lecture series begins on October 8th. If you are interested in joining us, please check this website in early September for registration details.

​

Thank you to everyone—past and present—whose volunteer efforts make ELO possible. We look forward to welcoming both returning and new members to another season of learning, discovery, and stimulating conversation.

​

Enjoy your summer,

Lloyd McIntyre
