Denmark River Probus celebrate their anniversary

23 Oct 2024

The Denmark River Probus Club celebrated their 10th anniversary in style, with 50 members attending the festive occasion.

Among them were nine of the Club’s founding members, and seven former and current presidents, highlighting the leadership and dedication that has shaped the Club over the years.

Club members embraced the party spirit in fancy dress, enjoying skits, jokes and humorous poems. Helena stole the show with her comedic and energetic performance of Banjo Paterson’s poem “The Man from Ironbark.”

On a more formal note, Carmel was honoured with the Club’s first Life Membership badge, along with a certificate and beautiful bouquet. Carmel has held numerous roles in the Club, including president and treasurer, and is known for her generosity, such as when she brought a feast of homemade samosas and desserts to the Probus wine club’s Indian themed night.

The celebration was a fitting tribute to a decade of fun, friendship and fellowship. The Club looks forward to many more years of Probus camaraderie and memories.
