The Probus Club of Gerringong meets every fourth Monday at 9:30am at the Uniting Church Hall on Fern St.

This month is particularly special with our very special Probarian Gwen Wilson, who turned 104! Gwen received a special welcome to our Probus meeting this month. We are all in awe of her amazing health and vitality as she joined us to celebrate her 104 birthday. What a wonderful, remarkable lady. 

Gwen had a twin sister, Jeane. In 1957, Gwen and her husband, David bought a block of land on then, a very different Werri beach. In 1976, they retired to their Werri beach home and community. Now living in the Mayflower retirement home, she still actively keeps up with the family and is still very much out and about around town.

An event this month, which proved to be very amusing was the Wind in the Willows performed by children at the Nowra players. They delighted all the ages, including our Probus members.

We also enjoyed a day at the Kembla Grange races. I am not sure if picking the number 4 for each race was the best formula; however, lunch and friendship was definitely a winner.
