The Club's monthly meetings are a key part of the PROBUS experience. They allow the Management Committee to provide updates, and they enable all members to catch up with friends (old and new), discuss upcoming events and activities and to generally participate in the ongoing development of the club.
Our monthly meetings are always held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 10:00am to noon. There is a $2 charge for attending the meeting which helps cover the meeting expenses. Coffee will be served and members are encouraged to bring their own mugs.
PROBUS meetings always feature a guest speaker and this month will be no exception:
Neil Crone is a noted comedian, actor, author and speaker. A Second City alumnus, Neil has been performing improvised and sketch comedy for over twenty years and has performed in dozens of commercials, TV shows, and is the voice of numerous cartoon characters every Saturday morning.
Neil is perhaps best known for his six seasons playing the role of Radio Redneck Fred Tupper in CBC’s hit sit-com "Little Mosque on the Prairie".
He is also an award-winning syndicated humour columnist for Metroland papers and has published 4 books; "Semi-Colon; A Writers cheeky journey through Colo-rectal Cancer", “Who Farted?’ – Stories in Verse for big and little kids”, “The Farmers Secret Midnight Dance” and his first collection of syndicated columns “Enter Laughing – The Early Years”.
Neil will present The Art of Saying Yes ; "a humorous and poignant presentation on life lessons a cancer diagnosis has taught me".
