A slideshow capturing some of the past two-and-a-half decades of memories was shared, largely focused on the 3Cs events where members camp and caravan.
Probus president Trevor Rickard was happy to see the turnout of more than 70 faces share in the celebration.
“A lot of history, a lot of fun and a lot of great, great memories,” he said.

He also welcomes prospective members to get involved in the club if they are interested.
“It’s 25 years today,” he said.
“We’re a community-based group, and we encourage anyone of retirement age to come and join in on the fun.”
