Fun and Friendship in Retirement

Jacqui from Dinsdale

If you are close to or have recently retired, want more social contact, Probus might just be the answer.
Probus is a social group of active retired and semi-retired men and women who meet monthly to keep their minds active, expand their interests and to enjoy the fellowship of new friends. . Friendship, Fellowship, and Fun are Probus trademarks. Unlike Rotary, Probus clubs are not service clubs and do not raise funds. Neither do they seek to make a profit; they only charge a moderate membership fee. Members meet on a regular basis, listen to interesting speakers, have local trips and visits, regular luncheons, and join together in wide range of interest groups, and other activities. New members welcome.
Hamilton West Probus meets every 4th Thursday, coffee at 9.30am, meeting starts 10.00am, at the Hamilton Workingman’s Club, 45 Commerce Street, Frankton, Hamilton.
New members welcome.

Festive cheer, fiscal fear - and questions about growth

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton’s boom-town status has been called into question as Hamilton City Council grapples with the need to bring rates within Government mandated limits.

Councillor Andrew Bydder said assumptions about relentless population growth may be “out of date”, and called for a review of the issue early next year.
