Submitted to the PROBUS Global Newsletter, Spring 2022.

Along with all the other clubs around the world, the past two years have provided the Karori Probus Club with a huge learning curve.

In 2020 as her very first job as newly elected President, Kay Klitscher had to advise the members there would be no meetings for the next few months. Other than that, and until now, with very few exceptions, our club has been operating as usual.  We are lucky in that our meetings take place in a large hall connected to a local bowling club with plenty of room for the 70 plus usual attendees. During December we celebrated our 30th anniversary there with a sit down, catered lunch.

During the two years, the committee, subcommittees and intent groups have continued to operate mostly uninterrupted.

Now, with the introduction of Omicron to our shores, and with the rapidly increasing numbers, we have decided that our AGM will be held via Zoom.  This is a first for us and we are hopeful that most members will join.,
