Great!JuneʺThe Rains Came.ʺ Guess it serves me right for skiting about the good run we have hadwith the weather. Twelve stalwarts rolled up Thursday. We had only played about 5‐6ends, when the drizzle started, so MOST of us headed for coffee and bickie, except forone four.

President’s Message to MembersMarch has been a difficult month for all Seaforth Probus members with the passing of NoelHarrs and now Lois Ryan departing from Barry. It is sad when we lose a member but becauseboth of these individuals contributed so much to our Probus Club and had such a tremendousimpact on our lives, we will miss them even more. I have sent sympathy cards to both familieson behalf of Seaforth Probus and expressed our profound sympathy and offered our supportand help in their hour of need.But with the coming of March and the start of autumn there is a change in the air and we lookforward to a renewed sense of being with the change of seasons. Our last order of business forthis year is our Annual General Meeting which will be at our regular meeting on March 24. Wewill be reviewing the past year and planning for the future.This past year has been a monumental year with the changing of our club from a men onlyclub to an open-to-everyone club and the changes it has brought. I must say all the changes havebeen positive with our overall membership rising from a low of 60 to a current high of 72. Theinflux of women, partners of members and single ladies, has been positive and we have pickedup a number of male members and couples. This all adds to our viability of our club to face thefuture with confidence. We have had a great range of speakers who have made our meetingmore interesting and enjoyable this past year. We have been on lots of interesting and funactivities throughout the year with our Getaway for an extended time being a lot of fun. Theopera, musicals, theatre and visits to the Fish Markets being just some of the highlights to theyear gone by.We look forward to a new upcoming year of activities, excursions, and Getaways with lots ofsmiles and fun for all. If you have not been involved in our activities then you are missing outon a great time and lots of friendships made on the outings. So get involved, choose your interestand get to know your fellow members and enjoy the benefits of Seaforth Probus.ThanksMichael Calloway
