Two Point Lonsdale Probus clubs have come together to get to know each other and discover what each does within the community.

Committee members from the Combined Probus Club of Point Lonsdale and Point Lonsdale and District Probus Club caught up for a coffee and discussed how the clubs complement each other.

The newly formed Point Lonsdale and District Probus Club invites anyone interested to attend its meetings at 10am on the first Thursday of each month at the Point Lonsdale Surf Lifesaving Club.

The Combined Probus Club of Point Lonsdale recently celebrated its 23rd birthday and draws membership solely from the 3225 postcode.

The club’s meetings are held at 10am on the fourth Monday of each month at the Point Lonsdale Bowls Club.

Activities provided by Probus clubs include coffee mornings, dining out, walking groups, book clubs, movie nights, and trips within and outside the region.

The monthly meetings of both clubs feature a short general meeting followed by morning tea and a guest speaker. The clubs also welcome mixed genders and are seeking new members.
