Over the last year or so topics have included Life With a Seeing Eye Dog, 30 Years in the RAAF, Gauchos, Earthquakes and Hostages, Experience with Space Agency Tidbinbilla, Aboriginal Groups From Sydney to the Victorian Border, Pilates, Heroes of the Eurobodalla, Tomakin History and Big Foot, Yeti and Yowie ... and more.
The speaker at the August 27 meeting, where prospective new members will be welcome, will be Ross Thomas who will talk about U3A ... University of the Third Age.
The University of the Third Age is an international movement whose aims are the education and stimulation of mainly retired members of the community - those in their third 'age' of life. It is commonly referred to as U3A.
Moruya Probus meets at Moruya Golf Club at 10am on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
There are many advantages with being a member of Probus.
Apart from meeting new friends, and sometimes some old ones, there are opportunities of being involved in outings.
There are discounts for some members with restaurants and hotels and more reasonable travel insurance rates that seniors may otherwise be offered.
And there are no obligations to give talks.
Anyone considering membership should call President Diane Montgomerie on 4471 8629, or just turn up at a meeting.
(*No speakers at the September meeting as that's the month for the photo competition results.)
