Wednesday 16th May;  The Club Archive,  Speaker, Jim McBain

Club Archivist, Jim McBain with Club President Felim O’Neill

On Wednesday 15th May members received a talk from Probus member Jim McBain about the club archive.   Housed in hardback notebooks, wedding albums and art folders the archive provides interesting insights into the history of the club since its formation in 1977.   In that time Probus has hosted over 200 speakers who have addressed a wide range of topics. Many of these have been by club members talking about their interests and enthusiasms.  Invited guests have addressed a diverse range of topics including art, chemistry, history, geography, engineering medicine, sociology, politics and philosophy – the common factor being that all were engaging and enjoyable.
