Lantzville Probus hosts a large variety of activities, which currently comprise:
Book Exchange
If you enjoy reading, come to our General meeting where you may bring or borrow any of the books in our library.
Creative Writing/Memoirs Group
This is a mixed group which meets regularly and members offer each other tips and suggestions about writing memoirs.
Drinks & Appies
Drinks & Appies functions are held the third weekend of each month with two homes participating. It is a reciprocal agreement where, if you join, you are expected to “Host” a function. Small or large homes, it’s always fun. Guests bring an appetizer or dessert of their choice, their own beverage and enjoy an evening with their Probus friends.
Excursions
One-off excursions, often in conjunction with other local Probus clubs, are organised at intervals throughout the year.
Ladies Book Club
There are 2 groups each of which meets on the first Wednesday of each month at a members house. A book is chosen ahead of time for the group to read and discuss at the next gathering.
Ladies Bridge
The Ladies Bridge Group meets on alternate Monday afternoons.
Ladies Coffee ‘N Chat
The group meets on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at McDonalds, Rutherford Rd.
Ladies Lunch Group
This group meets the 2nd Thursday of each month at an establishment selected by the members.
Mens Coffee
The group meets at Nanaimo Golf Club on Tuesdays and discusses topical subjects over coffee.
Movie Night
The group meets occasionally on Tuesday afternoon/evening when suitable films are showing in Nanaimo.
Pub Night
Normally every 3rdTuesday of the month the group visits a local hostelry.
Walking Group
Walks take place each Wednesday, normally at 10:00 am and last for about an hour and a half on well-established trails, usually finishing at a coffee shop to discuss current events and set the world to rights. (Dogs are welcome)
