What is Probus All About?

Probus clubs are secular, non-fundraising social clubs that provide a community service based on Friendship, Fellowship and Fun.
The Bribie Island Probus Club Inc. is one of about 1700 clubs operating in the Australasian area and meet at 9am on the first Tuesday of each month in the Bribie RSL’s Garden Room.
In addition to our routine meetings where, among other interests, we are entertained by a guest speaker, our club’s monthly social activities typically include barbecues, special morning teas, pub lunches and visits to local area (Southeast Queensland) places of interest.
On occasion, the club organises tours further afield, the most recent one of which involved a five-day visit to Yeppoon and its many local tourist attractions. Soon, 14 members will embark on ‘The Ghan’ for the four-day trip from Darwin to Adelaide and continue on a Murry River voyage on the ‘Proud Mary’ paddle steamer. Planning is also underway for a Norfolk Island visit later in the year.
If you are interested in becoming a member of one of Bribie Island’s senior social clubs, come along to a monthly meeting and find out what we’re all about.
