THE PENSHURST RSL YOUTH SWIM CLUB After a really busy December & a month off over the
summer school holidays, Swim Club resumed this week
with 105 members. It’s great to see most of our
swimmers are preparing to enter their primary & high
school swimming carnivals, we wish them all the very
best of luck & can’t wait to hear how they went.
REPRESENTATIVE SWIMMING We were all very proud that the Penshurst RSL Swim Club had 41 of its members qualify for the 2014 Zone Championships in December. We won 13 Gold, 12 Silver and 12 Bronze medals. A whopping 21 of our swimmers qualified for the NSW RSL STATE SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIPS which are to be held in DUBBO in March. We wish our State Swimmers all the very best & can’t wait to see what March 14 brings. Only two more weeks of enrolments before our membership closes for the season. Our Stroke Development class has some vacancies as does our water awareness/learn-to-swim programme for children aged 4 and over. Call/email for more info.
The Probus aim is to provide, through social interaction and ac-tivities, an opportunity for retired or semi-retired men and women to expand their interests and to enjoy the fellowship of new friends. The motto of Probus is fellowship, friendship and fun.
There are three Probus clubs that meet each month at Penshurst RSL. They all do similar things in-cluding guest speakers on a range of interesting topics, regular day outings to various destinations by coach or other means, barbeques, walks, theatre parties, and longer
trips away once or twice a year.

TRAVEL CLUB By the time you read this, we will have been on our first day tour for 2015: the fully-booked Sydney Har-bour ‘Fun Boat’ Cruise on 29 Janu-ary, and it is hoped to write a para-graph about this in the Club’s March Newsletter. Our organiser, Elizabeth, likes to start the year off with a boat trip and in recent times we’ve enjoyed days on the Hawkesbury, Georges and Port Hacking Rivers.
Our first long trip in 2015 is in March and this is fully booked. However, two extended tours have just been added to this year’s pro-gram: Christmas in July on 18/19 July, spending the weekend at Port
Stephens. The second is a four-day mid-week tour to Rydal in Septem-ber for their annual Daffodils Festi-val, staying for the three nights in Oberon and visiting other attrac-tions in the area. The itinerary for this tour is now available and it will open for bookings at our February meeting. Christmas in July should open the following month.
We are eager to have more people join us for the 19-day New Zealand tour of both islands from 7 – 25 November which is now booking. It requires a $200 deposit per per-son and the balance may be paid off until the final payment date of 5 August. The basic itinerary is
now on our website:
http://pentravelclub.weebly.com.
If you would like to become a member of the travel club, our next monthly meetings are Wednesdays 4 February and 4 March, starting at 6.45 pm in the auditorium. An annual member-ship fee of $6 will cover you for the period 1/7/2014 until 30/6/2015, but you must be a member of Pen-shurst RSL Club to join. If you would like to contact us in the meantime, please e-mail [email protected] or phone 9533 5809 (please leave a message if necessary).
