KAMLOOPS GRASSLANDS PROBUS CLUB

Who are we?

The Kamloops Grasslands Probus Club was created in the fall of 2016, joining 3 other Kamloops Clubs providing social and educational opportunities for Seniors.

Our Club meets 9 times a year (no July, Aug and Jan) with a Speaker, and Coffee plus goodies. We enjoy the social time and there's no requirement to attend... neat eh?

We do no fundraising or volunteer work, aside from the wonderful members who DO volunteer to make our Club run.

Our dues go to running the Club and it's activities.

A key piece of our Club are the various Interest Groups. A fun way to meet new people while participating in an activity or common interest.

Sound interesting?

Join us, or a Probus Club near you.

Tips for newer members about Clubrunner

Posted by Sean McKenna on Nov 14, 2019

If you are really curious about Clubrunner, email me and we can have coffee and chat. Otherwise, if you are newer to the Club, the following may help you.

We use CR to make communication, and collaboration easier than on paper or in people's computers. CR is on a server in Toronto with our friends there.
As a member, you are able (when I set you up) to login to our website, update your info (like an email address), email other members, and probably most important, you can view ALL our Club documents. Our Constitution, Bylaws, Member Lists and all our meeting minutes and financial reports are stored there. How many Clubs can say that all their club info is available SECURELY to their members? Most Probus Clubs have paper files and binders.
As a member who volunteers in our Management Group, or equally important, as a Coordinator of one of our Interest Groups, CR can make your life as easy as possible.
Do you NEED to login? Nope. You get everything via email in Announcements and when we have a volunteer to create a newsletter... in that too!

If you have any questions at all about Clubrunner, just email me. If I don't know the answer I'm sure I can make something up.

Cheers!

Got a cell phone?

Posted by Sean McKenna

If you have a cell phone, you can download the Clubrunner App. It's a blue square logo with CR in the middle. With your Clubrunner login, you can instantly pull up a Members list with addresses, phone numbers and email addresses... all with one touch activation. So you can phone another member with one button! Or send them an email the same way! It also provides our Meeting information and mapping for addresses using Googlemaps.

If you are interested I can help you download and activate it.

Cheers

Interest Groups

Posted by Sean McKenna on Oct 10, 2017

The Interest Groups are really what PROBUS is all about. Yes we have 9 meetings a year with interesting speakers and camaraderie with friends... but it's the activities of the Interest Groups that can continue all year long. The KEYS to a successful Interest Group are Coordinators - someone willing to communicate an "event"... and this can easily be a shared responsibility... oops I said the R word.... relax! This is a social club! A few good people can bring together a group of like minded people for a shared interest, and a shared experience. Hopefully you joined with the hope of being active mentally, physically or both... and are looking to learn new things!

Be that person to step up and help an Interest Group work. We are here to help you. The new website will make it easier...
