My Fellow Retirees, 2020 has indeed been a dif-
-
ing the holiday season and still practicing social
distancing and covering our faces. So, please do so
until we are given the green light to stop!
We, at the NCRGEA, are committed to your
safety as well as ours, and have launched some
new activities with that in mind. Please visit our
website at www.ncrgea.com, YouTube Channel and
Facebook page to stay informed and connected.
Featured below are some of our new activities.
Healthy Living and Cooking at Home
On YouTube, you can view easy and delicious
dishes that you can do at home. If you are like me,
you are always seeking exciting recipes to just
change the scenery a bit. Plans are underway
to feature a variety of chefs from different back-
native and owner of Cantina 18 in our Cameron
Featured Chef. Yum!

the prize to you so be sure we have your correct
address. At the end of each quarter, we will place
all those who participated in the Trivia game in a
drawing for a $100 gift card. Each quarterly winner
will be featured in a future newsletter to showcase
our membership. Remember, to go to the
website to participate! Questions and responses
for Trivia will run from the 15th to the 30th of each

District Community Group Meetings
The District Community Group meetings will
start in November. Because we are still “Safer at
Home,” we will need to meet virtually. A zoom
link will be sent to your email and you will only
need to click it. It’s so easy! If you need a little
help, there will be a video on the
NCRGEA YouTube Channel to
help you learn how to connect.
For those of you who prefer to
use the phone for these meetings,
a number will be provided.

Retiree Buddy Initiative
The Retiree Buddy initiative is something everyone
can participate. Just check on your friends
and colleagues by phone, email, Facebook or other
social media. That is all it takes! We are in this together
and one by one we can do our part to minimize
isolation and support one another! Become a
Retiree Buddy!
Email Address Campaign
We are on a mission to collect your personal email
addresses so we can stay better connected and
be more informative. In addition to your email
address, please make sure we have your correct
phone/cellphone number and address. You can

sure your information is updated in our database.
My phone number is: 919-980-6681.
