Where Age Doesn’t Keep Us From Thinking Young!

Our Strength is Fellowship; Our Success is Participation.

Welcome to the
men’s Probus Club of Collingwood!

The Probus Club of Collingwood, will celebrate it’s 35th anniversary in October, 2022. It is the original men’s Probus Club of the Georgian Triangle, and one of the first in Ontario. Informative speakers each month combined with a membership of over 140 retired and semi-retired active men, enable us to create a place of enjoyment and fellowship in the community, emphasizing the Probus motto. We enjoy numerous trips and social events throughout the year, including golf, biking, theatre, excursions, and tours of businesses throughout Ontario.

Book Exchange:

Our book exchange is back in business. So bring along a few of the books you've enjoyed over the past 2 years, and exchange them for fresh reading material. Many thanks to Dorte and Steve Hawker who operated an excellent book exchange service from their home on Minnesota St throughout the last 2 years.

Remember: Be a friend, bring a friend. And let us know if there's a member who's not doing well.

Regards,

John Megarry
