Welcome to the Probus Club of Unley

Dear Unley Probus Club members,

 Given the problems associated with the COVID-19 Corona Virus, the Management Committee has decided as of March 18th 2020, to suspend General Meetings and all other activities, including Outings and Interest Groups (Coffee and Chat, Mens BBQ, Romeo and Juliets until further notice.

Smaller groups like Book Club and Theatre can decide among themselves what they would like to do.

As restrictions are relaxed, members will be notified by email or a note in the 'Probus Online Patter' when Interest groups (Coffee, Cake & Chat, Men's BBQ, ROMEOs & JULIETs) are able to meet.

 

The Committee has taken this action which is consistent with government policy and direction which is to slow the rate of infection.

Whilst the number of cases of COVID-19 in Adelaide is small, the virus cannot be contained.

If it takes hold its spread will be exponential as evidenced internationally

Further many of our members are in the age demographic where they are susceptible to severe effects should they contract the virus.

The Committee believed we should exercise leadership and act now to ensure that we guarantee the club will not contribute to the spread.

 We appreciate that many members will be disappointed, but the Committee believes this is the responsible action in the current situation.

 The Committee is also suspending the April Management meeting, but will meet again in May to reconsider the matter.

 Management Committee of the Unley Probus Club (March 18 2020)
