Welcome to the Combined Probus Club of Paradise Point.
Membership
Probus is a local, national, and international association of retired people who come together in non-political, non-sectarian, non-profit, autonomous clubs which provide regular opportunities for members to meet others in similar circumstances, with similar levels of interest, make new friends, and maintain and expand their interests.
Probus exist to fill a need of retired persons in the community who have been accustomed to vocational activity in their working lives. The principal objective of Probus is to create and maintain a homogeneous group that provides the fellowship and intellectual stimulation that otherwise tends to be lost in retirement. Most importantly, you will make new friends with whom to share the many enjoyable experiences on offer
The club always welcomes visitors to attend our meetings, functions and activities. However, it is Club policy to request visitors who attend three or more meetings, functions and activities to advise if they intend completing an application for membership form.
