ABOUT
Probus is an
association of retired or semi-retired people (men and women), who join
together with the basic purpose of providing regular opportunity to keep
their minds active, expand their interests and enjoy the company of new
friends.
CLUB HISTORY
Our Probus Club was established
on 14th May, 1987
by a small number of men and women, some of whom are still members of
the Club.
For
over 20 years we met at the Illawarra Catholic Club, but the meeting
room was no longer available after April 2009. The new meeting venue is
at Kingsgrove RSL Club Brocklehurst Lane, Kingsgrove. At the present time we have approximately 90 members but this
number is growing steadily. At the moment we
still have vacancies for new members.
ACTIVITIES are as
follows:
- Formal meeting each month
which consists of Club business, a coffee break followed by a guest
speaker.
- An outing once each month,
usually on the third Monday of the Month, to different sights around
Sydney, sometimes we travel by Coach and
other times we meet at a designated spot and travel on public
transport.
- Twice
each year we have a five or six day tour to a holiday destination in
New South Wales
or other times we travel further into another State.
We travel by coach or by plane depending on the location.
