Kevin said the club was looking forward to its next meeting, which will feature a presentation by guest speaker Todd Sergent from NURFM. Todd will be speaking about his aerial escapades (not his radio presentations) and the club’s members and guests are looking forward to an entertaining presentation. Members of the community are welcome to attend. The Medowie Probus Club meets on the third Wednesday each month at 10am at the Medowie Community Centre and all are welcome. There is usually a guest speaker and the meetings have morning tea at the end, where members and visitors can enjoy a chat in friendly ambience.
