Our September meeting was a little different, as we had our guest speaker before our usual meeting, which allowed our guest to leave when she wished.
Margie Ryan introduced our special guest author, Julie Bayl, who has written a book based on a true story "Focus on Survival", telling the story of her in-laws in Holland during World War 2.
Julie read three exciting extracts from the book, leaving us intrigued to hear more. Many autographed books were sold on the day.
Beryl Bryant was quite happy to thank Julie for being our guest on the day and presented her with a gift.
On September 24, 35 excited members from both the Ladies and Men's Probus clubs boarded the bus at the depot for our ever popular mystery trip, organised by our Secretary Ruth Daintith.
We set off, most guessing which way we were going, right or left?
Canowindra was our destination, arriving at the Age of Fishes Museum after morning tea. We were taking on a very interesting guided tour. Our next stop was the heritage walk to the Historical Society Museum, once again a guided tour.
We had a most enjoyable lunch at the Canowindra Services Club, when then took us to Wyangala Dam, with a not-so-brief history of the dam by our guide, Jill.
After afternoon tea, we headed back to Cowra. The weather was enjoyable, the company great but the dam was quite low.
Our October 11 meeting will be held at the Cowra Services Club, 10am for morning tea, 10.30am meeting. This will be our birthday meeting.
We will not be having a guest speaker this month but we have a little surprise happening so come along and join us. Newly retired ladies always welcome.
On Sunday, October 27, those interested in going to see Jesus Christ Superstar please see Carol Delaney at our next meeting. Our November meeting will be a little different, details later.
