Centaurus Combined Probus
Next Meeting 2pm, Tuesday (6th May), Cashmere Club, 50 Colombo St (Sth)
Are you retired or semi-retired? perhaps feeling a bit lonely and looking for the opportunity to meet new people and try new things? Is it time to take some new steps?
The Centaurus Combined (for women and men) Probus Club offers the opportunity to meet new people and try new experiences in a friendly environment. The group meets monthly at the Cashmere Club. (You do not need to be a Cashmere Club member to attend.) The Centaurus group has members from Redcliffs to Halswell as well as from across town. During the month a variety of activities are organised. Some are regular, such as the walking group, Mahjon, 10-pin bowling etc, and a dinner night at a local restaurant, and others are one-off events eg Court theatre, flower nursery tour.
The guest speaker at our next meeting is Deborah O’Neill, who worked with Jo Seagar. She is speaking on healthy cooking for small numbers which is a topic relevant to many of us!

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
