Paeroa Probus had a “successful and fun” fifth birthday and AGM on March 27, with the cake made by Noellean McHugh and cut by the club’s first president Noel Coventry and special guests Sydney and Judith Shepherd from Omokoroa.
Probus clubs provide members with the opportunity to connect socially, and membership is open to anyone who is retired or semi-retired.
The Paeroa arm continued operating throughout Covid-19, missing only two meetings due to the national lockdowns.
Its new club president is Jo Schneebeli, vice president is Robin Kennedy, and outgoing co-presidents are Elizabeth Beare and Lorraine Wilson.
