Ongoing Events

Bowling

Probus Bowling is two 5 pin games that currently happen on the third Tuesday of the month at Lakeview Bowl located at 109 George St. North.  The goal is fun, fellowship with a side of friendly competition.  All are welcome! 

Nine Hole Golf Scramble

Join us for fun golf every second Friday from May 1 to October 1.  These 9 hole events are best ball Team scramble so your bad shots can be neutralized by a fine shot by a team member.  Or as sometimes happens your bad shot may be the best shot for the team.  Although we keep scores, fun not scores is our priority.

And as a bonus, end of year trophies are awarded for a variety of categories.  Teams are changed regularly so no one is stuck playing with Mike Hart too often.

 

 

Eighteen Hole Golf

If you play golf, even just a little, then chances are you will enjoy joining us for 18 holes.  In addition to our 9-hole best ball games, we organize four, 18-hole golf games each summer followed by sandwiches and good times.  The focus is on fun and there is plenty of that.  Come as we tear up the fairways, have a good laugh and swap golfing stories at the 19th hole. Worried that you may not play well enough to join us? Then worry no more.  Whether you're a seasoned golfer or just an occasional duffer, you'll fit right in.  We welcome golfers of all levels.  There is no charge to belong to the group and no obligation to play every game.  You just pay your green fees and cart fee (if applicable) when you play.

Lunch Bunch

Please join us every third Thursday of the month for fellowship and fun over lunch.  We always choose an independent restaurant at a convenient location with ample parking and that can accommodate a group.  Location is announced at each Probus meeting along with the website and newsletter.

Contact Marion Philip or Bonnie Williams to sign up.
