About the club
The club meets every month, on the 3rd Thursday, for a lunch at The West Worthing Tennis Club, and
after lunch there is always a very interesting guest speaker; apart
from 3 months, two of which are for ladies' luncheons and one for a
dinner, when members' wives/partners and widows are invited. These
latter meetings are generally held at the Worthing Golf Club.
Coffee mornings, also with members' wives/partners and widows (ie an
opportunity to get to know one another better in the convivial
atmosphere of some hostelry, or restaurant, and discuss possible future
club events/outings etc - £2.50 per person), are held on the
1st Thursday of each month, except for July, August and September.
Each year, day outings are arranged with wives/partners/widows (eg a
day trip to France, visit to the House
of Commons, an evening
members' skittles match, a members' croquet match, a luncheon trip on
the Thames,
a trip to the theatre, etc).
Average cost of day trips/events are around
£20-£30 per person. On occasion members of other
local Probus clubs may be invited to join in, to make up numbers.
Cost
Annual subscription £10.
Regular luncheon meetings £11 per person, per meeting.
