Fellow Probians

I think we can say we had a successful meeting at our new venue at the West Pennant Hills Sports Club in West Pennant Hills. We had a few teething problems mainly due to the signing in because of the Covid-19 App which will sort out in due course.

Unfortunately due again to Covid morning tea will not be available until things settle down. We had 34 members attend, and we were able to welcome 3 visitors which was pleasing. It was also great to have around 22 stay for lunch afterwards.

Ian Green did a sterling job in arranging Hans Kunnen who was a survivor of the 9/11 building collapse in New York. He kept us all capitated with such a description of that terrible event and spoke without notes and was understandably emotional from time to time.

Once again because of Covid, all outings will be on hold until things get back to some sort of normality.

We had a reasonable response to the members survey which Col Clay spent a lot of time on and I think Barry covered in general at our last meeting which unfortunately Col was unwell and unable to attend.

We would like to remind members to always be aware of prospective new members because this means the strength of our club in the future.
