Lighting it up

26 Jan 2021

Twenty-five Probians from a mix of ACT Clubs visited the Hunter Valley for the Trade Travel Christmas Lights Spectacular tour.

With a sense of jubilation and anticipation after the COVID-19 restrictions, the holidaymakers hopped on a touring coach one very early morning.

Members selected a seat and window each and prepared themselves for a five-day adventure of the Hunter Valley and beyond.

What an adventure! Five days of fun, sightseeing, learning, visiting historical sites and much more.

They were in safe hands with friendly Coach Captain Mark and a fun day visit from Trade Travel’s Area Sales Manager Serina Mace to ensure they saw as much of the Hunter Valley region as possible.

The highlight was the Hunter Valley Gardens by day and then viewing the Christmas Lights Spectacular wonderland by night.

With comfortable lodging in one place and delicious home-cooked meals using local produce, members were truly spoiled.

Five days later, as they disembarked back in Canberra, they parted as good friends, having shared five days of fun, laughter, connecting with each other, swapping stories and cementing the motto of Probus – Fun, Friendship and Fellowship.
