Who We Are
Learning in Retirement (LiR) offers our 50+ community the opportunity to explore old and new interests in a relaxed and stimulating learning environment. LiR, a volunteer not-for-profit organization, works in partnership with Selkirk College to develop and provide a diverse program of speakers, courses and other activities for its members.
LiR officially began in 2009 and by 2020 had grown to a membership of 400. During the fall, winter and spring terms, there are guest speakers, interest groups, trivia quizzes, courses and field trips.

Besides membership, volunteering is a great way to develop and keep your skills sharp while you help to keep LiR vital in the Nelson area. There are eight board committees to volunteer for: program, social, communications, membership, finance, archives, safety and audio/visual.
