One of my memories as a child was when we visited the Canadian cemetery close to my hometown of Holten in the Netherlands. It made a lasting impression on me seeing all those graves, especially the young age of most of them.
When I now see demonstrations and people yelling, “We want freedom”, I wonder what freedom they are looking for? I am thankful for the freedoms I have as a Canadian and
when we grumble about our circumstances, we should look at how we compare to most of the world.

Ron and I emigrated to Canada I March 2001. Roger was living in Australia at the time. I have had a wonderful life here being involved with many different organizations.
I joined Probus in 2022 and so enjoy the overall friendliness and acceptance of the group. I am looking forward to being President for 2024/25 and meeting some more new faces.

Women's Club
Probus Clubs are non-political, non-profit and non-fund raising. We are an active group of about 100 women who as the word Pro (fessional) Bus (iness). indicates, are a combination of retired business and professional women. Membership is not restricted to these groups but embraces former executives of government or organizations in which anyone has had a measure of responsibility.
Fees are set by the local club. We encourage women to attend as a guest for the first time and then hopefully will be excited about becoming a member following your visit.
Woodstock-Oxford Women’s Probus Club began in 1995 and as we enter another decade we ask you to consider joining with us to share in the rewards of being a member of Probus. We look forward to meeting you.
