Len Christie, President of the Probus Club of Mt Eliza and Honorary Member of our Club together with Probus Secretary Deborah Fleiner, sent the following letter to President Sue and all Club members to celebrate our 50 Years Anniversary.
Unfortunately, the letter seems to not want to be printed in our Bulletin.
A copy hand delivered by Linda Morris went missing and then last week the letter was cut and pasted into the Bulletin and was in place during the Review Stage (when the Editor is supposed to check for 'typos'). However, upon the Bulletin being sent, the letter disappeared.
Apologies to Len and Probus Members!
Third time lucky. Please see a retyped version of the letter below.

Dear President Sue and Mount Eliza Rotarians,
We, the Probus Club of Mount Eliza, acknowledge your achievement of reaching your 50th Anniversary. We are very much aware of the many contributions your Club has made to the quality of our Community and areas further afield, starting under the leadership of Presidency of the Late Wal Cubbin and Secretary, the Late Bill Parsons, both of whom were highly active and outstanding Rotarians.

In addition, several of your Past rotarians have joined our ranks and have continued to willingly participate in the running of our Club. We take the opportunity of mentioning two of those Mount Eliza Rotarians, the Late John Dunn and Ted Humphreys (who could forget Ted), together past Rotarians from other Clubs.
We congratulate allRotarians, Past and President, for reaching this milestone and wish you all a very enjoyable celebration, and continued success in your valuable activities.
For and on behalf of all our Mount Eliza Probians,
