THE Gambier City Ladies Probus Club celebrated its 27th birthday last month with a luncheon at the Mount Gambier Bowls Club.
Guest speakers for the day included Neil McLean and John Rymill who spoke about their trips to the Antarctic, following in the footsteps of Mr Rymill’s great-grandfather, who led the British Graham Land expedition to the Antarctic between 1934 and 1937.
Inaugural member Grace Plew, life member Pam Hillier, and 96 year old Isobel Phillips cut the birthday cake.
After 27 years in operation, the club continues to provide fellowship and friendship to many retired members of the Mount Gambier community.
