Probus Club of Casey Combined celebrated its 25th birthday and the changeover to the 2024 team on 12 March.
Past president Bert Ainge hosted the general meeting and thanked all his team for their work over the year.
The AGM saw the election of John Kluyt as the incoming president when Bert presented him with his chain of office and badge.
A barbecue lunch was organised to celebrate the occasion at the Old Cheese Factory on Homestead Road in Berwick with club member Lesley Seeley arranging the luncheon. Lesley has been a member of the club since its inauguration and for the past 18 years has excellently filled the role of outings officer.
She has organised many trips, both within Australia and overseas.
One of the memorable occasions has been the recent trip to the Mt Gambier area, which was very much enjoyed by all.
The honour of cutting the birthday cake went to Bert, Lesley, and two inaugural members, Norma Musgrove and Gloria Blythe.
Bert made a presentation to Lesley with his enormous thanks for support during his term of office and for her long term as outings officer.
