It is hard to believe that almost a year has gone by since I assumed the role of your president. As we approach the close of another Probus year, I find myself reflecting on the many memorable moments we have shared together. It has been an honour and a privilege to serve you. Your Management Committee have certainly made my time very easy and I want to thank them all for their outstanding efforts on your behalf this past year. They are a great group who really care about the club. Their enthusiasm and participation have been the heartbeat of everything we have accomplished this year.
This year our club continued to grow as we added 14 new members. We also had a number of special events. Our weekly, monthly or seasonal regular activities are thriving.
Shortly I will be handing the presidency to Dayle Acorn who graciously stepped into the vice president role mid way though this past year. I look forward to his leadership in the coming year and wish him success.
Looking back, I am deeply grateful for the spirit of cooperation that has permeated all our activities. Whether it was welcoming fresh faces, or working quietly behind the scenes, the willingness of everyone to lend a hand has been truly inspiring. This sense of unity has made our club not just successful, but also a warm and welcoming community.
Again, thank you all for the honour of being your president. It’s been a wonderful and fulfilling experience. I urge each of you to give it a try.
