Celebrating the second anniversary of Probus Mawson Lakes: Jacqueline Wood, Lynn Flachs, Yolande Bedford and Faye Martin
CELEBRATING PROBUS Retired school principal, Ralph Greenham, had us in fits of laughter one minute as he recited an hilarious poem about a senior citizen's christmas party, then he moved us to sorrow when he recited a poem about a country farmer who was suffering deep anxiety during the drought.

Ralph was the guest speaker at the Probus Club of Mawson Lakes at its February meeting. Born in the country Ralph admits he has an affinity with bush ballads. “I try to bring the character into each poem I recite and leave my audience with a sense of wicked fun or sadness,” he said. Probus is a worldwide organisation with clubs throughout Australia. In February it celebrated its second year in Mawson Lakes. The well organised social club meets each month in the Mawson Centre where a guest speaker entertains the gathering.
HARD
Events coordinator Faye Martin has a range of outings planned for 2022 including bus trips, museum, gallery and zoo visits and luncheons in lovely places. "Our diverse membership of retirees likes social interaction so we plan visits with morning teas and luncheons to new venues and we like to mix with other Probus clubs." ED
