Probus welcomes retirees
Guest Speaker, Officer Joan Barnier, with speakers Paul and Raewyn Oliver of The Shed.
A busy Cooloola Coast Information Day was a chance to share information about our activities, and also network with other groups.
Guest Speakers at our meeting were Raewyn and Paul Oliver of the Tin Can Bay Community and Men’s Shed. Raewyn spoke of the history of the shed, and the sometimes difficult path to get it to its present, successfully functioning, state.
Paul then explained how The Shed functions now and the many activities that take place in it. He also brought along samples of work being done. Members were very impressed.
Members ventured out to lunch and the show at Morning Melodies at the RSL in Gympie for an enjoyable time, being entertained by Shayne Crump with his singing and infectious humour.
Probus Clubs welcome men and women of retirement or nearing-retirement age of any background. If you are interested in joining this happy group, please contact our President, Daryl, on M: 0416 739 324 or Secretary Katrina at cooloolaprobus@gmail.com.
Meetings are held on each second Monday of the month at 2pm at the Sandcastle Motel in Tin Can Bay, and include a break for afternoon tea and a chat.
