WHILE officially Probus Clubs don’t hold meetings in January, many of the keen members of the Fingal Bay Probus Club are still managing to get together, finding ways to enjoy their usual fun and friendship before holiday demands took over. Julia Redlich told News Of The Area, “There was a lunch at The Wharf with those wonderful views over the Marina, a necessary wine appreciation afternoon at the Nelson Bay CWA Hall, and a glorious feast at the Fingal Bay Sports Club ensured a great start to happy holidays.” Advertise with News of The Area today.
