Probus Speaker – Brian Colegate on Retirement Villiages
Just a reminder that Tawa Probus is back in action after a couple months break while COVID passed through Tawa. Visitors and perspective new members are very welcome.
This Monday 16th May, we meet again as normal at the Tawa Bowling Club, Davies Street, 9.30am.
We will be having our delayed brief AGM and then a speaker Brian Colegate. Brian is a resident in a Paraparaumu retirement village and has recently published a book on retirement villages titled – "Retirement Villages - Residents Verdict". Over the last decade we have seen an explosive growth in retirement villages and at some stage most older people may consider the prospect of moving into a village. Brian will present an unbiased view of the pros and cons of retirement village life and discuss some of the widely reported issues around the retirement village model.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
