The Inside Story . . .


Annual Picnic
WVURA Annual Picnic
Sunday, September 28, 2025

Retirees gathered at their annual picnic at the Westside Senior Center on Sunday, September 28, 2025. In addition to the food and drink, there were giveaway prizes and a raffle. This year there was a collection of food donations for the Scott's Run Backpack Feeding Program. Donations to the program have been sparse but retirees were generous and hopefully we were able to feed hungry school children in Monongalia County.   


Blood Drive
WVURA Blood Drive

The WVU Retiree Association sponsored a blood drive in conjunction with the American Red Cross held in the Nutting Gallery of the WVU Erickson Alumni Center. All the time slots were filled and retirees turned out to save lives in our community. 



Book - The Demon of UnrestWVURA Book Club
Friday, September 5, 2025


The September book was The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson. This book is about the five months between the election of Abraham Lincoln and the start of the Civil War, a period marked by miscommunications and tragic errors, inflamed egos and craven ambitions, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were “so great that, could I have anticipated them, I would not have believed it possible to survive them.”  (blurb from Amazon)
