Away from the park there was plenty to see in the surrounding area, with the historic Trial Bay Gaol being a major attraction. The club is currently wrapping up a busy year, and continues to welcome new members. “This mixed gender club has activities to suit everyone, and welcomes retired and semi-retired seniors to check them out,” said Ann. “Visit the website on www.probusclubofportstephens.org or you are welcome to attend a meeting on the second Thursday of the month at 10.30am at the Nelson Bay Bowling Club.” Contact Membership Director Marilynn on 0417 485 614 for further enquiries.
