2 2 Part 1 The Probus Story 1.1 Who Are We PROBUS is the association of retired and semiretired persons who join together in autonomous Clubs throughout the world. The word PROBUS is an abbreviation of the words PROfessional and BUSiness, but membership is not restricted to these two groups. It also embraces former executives of government and other organizations and, in fact, anyone who has had some measure of responsibility in any field of endeavour. The basic purpose of a PROBUS CLUB is to provide regular gatherings to those who, in retirement, appreciate and value opportunities to meet others in similar circumstances and of similar levels of interest. The emphasis is that the Clubs: Be simple in structure. Be free from the constraints and obligations of service Clubs. Involve members at a minimum cost. Be directed, primarily, to providing fellowship and the opportunity for development of acquaintance. Seek members who are compatible with one another. Their activities normally fall into two parts: A meeting on a set day of each month for about 1½ hours, comprising about 30 minutes of business, 15 minutes coffee break and 45 minutes for a speaker and discussion Visits (between meetings) to organizations and places of particular interest to members and occasional social and sports activities Rising out of their membership and activities there is self-generating goodwill, a sense of belonging, a diverse background of interests, fellow feeling and cordiality evident within the Clubs, ensuring for PROBUS a highly successful future as a firmly established part of the community. To preserve the integrity and reputation of these autonomous Clubs, they are encouraged to adhere to the standard constitution provided. This has proved to be a very successful

3 3 basis for serving the needs of retirees in the many countries in which the PROBUS movement is now flourishing. Some Important Features: The Clubs are non-political and non-sectarian They are non-profit and non-fund raising All Clubs are sponsored by Rotary or by an existing Probus Club, but on formation are autonomous, independent of their sponsor and independent of each other. There is no central governing body but Rotary or the sponsoring Probus Club maintains contact and an ongoing interest in their progress. Past membership in Rotary, or any service Club is not a requirement for potential members of PROBUS. Some Probus members are members, or past members, of Rotary or other service Clubs. There is no restriction on the number of members from any one vocation. There is no compulsion to attend any number of meetings. PROBUS members may be active members of any other organization and many are. Members' spouses and guests are invited to take part in most visits and in special functions. 1.2 Founding Clubs Probus Clubs spring from two main roots: the "Campus Club" founded by the Rotary Club of Welwyn Garden City and the "Probus Club" founded by the Rotary Club of Caterham in England in 1965 and 1966 respectively. Since then they have spread worldwide and continue to be established at a rapidly increasing rate as former professional and business persons and executives, invited to join, recognize the value of participation and observe the enthusiasm of existing members and the way in which PROBUS enriches their lives. PROBUS moved to New Zealand in 1974 and to Australia in There are now over 2200 Clubs and over 190,000 members in the Pacific Region. The U.K has also expanded tremendously. The first PROBUS CLUB in North America was the PROBUS CLUB OF CAMBRIDGE, Ontario sponsored in 1987 by the Rotary Club of Galt in Rotary District We have now chartered 201 Probus Clubs in Canada with a membership of over 27,000 persons. (May 1, 2009) PROBUS CENTRES, organized by Rotary, are set up to encourage and advise on the formation of further Clubs, maintain an up to date directory of local Probus Clubs, distribute lapel pins and

4 4 other regalia as may be found necessary, and publish a Probus Newsletter regularly, giving ideas and information on the activities of local Probus Clubs. A small annual contribution per member assists in funding the operations of Probus Centre-Canada, Inc. It is important to recognize that Probus Centre-Canada, Inc. owns and controls the Probus Logo and Probus Name in Canada. 1.3 Probus Club of Kitchener-Conestoga In 1994 Bob Weber was the President of the Rotary Club of Kitchener-Conestoga (RCKC). At that time, Probus Clubs were sponsored by Rotary Clubs and Bob Weber considered that there was a need for another Probus Club in K-W there were four Clubs at the time, one Men s Club and three Women s Clubs. The need was based on the ageing of RCKC members, many of whom were resigning from the service Club and could be interested in a Probus Club directed primarily to providing fellowship free from the constraints and obligations of a service Club. At a RCKC Board of Directors meeting in the Fall of 1994, Bob suggested that RCKC sponsor a new Men s Probus Club and requested seed money to the amount of $1,000. His proposal was approved. An Organizing Committee was formed with Bruce Scandrett, immediate Past President of RCKC, as Chair. The Committee included H. Basse, W. McGregor, F. Routery and B. Weber who met in February of 1995 to discuss the formation of the Probus Club. Twenty-one RCKC members had expressed an interest in the concept of such a Club. The initial plan was to form the new Club in the spring of 1995 but for various reasons the date was delayed to September At a meeting in the Granite Club, Kitchener, on the 26 September, 1995, a resolution to form the Probus Club of Kitchener-Conestoga (PCKC) was passed. Fifty men attended the meeting in which the first Executives of the Club were nominated and approved as follows: President Fred Routery 1 st VP Jim Robertson, 2 nd VP Ken Summers Secretary Gordon McConnell & Treasurer Bob Richards Probus Centre-Canada, incorporated in 1995, issued its Accreditation Certificate for the Probus Club of Kitchener-Conestoga confirming it was registered as Probus Club #51 on the 26 th September, 1995.

5 5 Charter Membership of the PCKC topped-off at 93 by the end of December, At that time a cap of 100 members was set. By the end of April, 1996, membership had reached 100 and the cap had to be reset at 110. Membership fees were $25. A survey done in April, 1995, indicated the membership s main pastimes were golf and skiing and they rated 1, 2 & 3 their special interests as travelogues, Drayton Theatre and plant tours. Our traditional BBQ and Christmas Lunch were established as annual events in our 1 st year of our operation.
