Activities form a major part in the life of our Club and these include lunches which are well supported by members and guests and held at different venues on a regular basis throughout the year.
Sunday Luncheon Club
On several Sunday’s throughout the year lunches are organised by David Slack at popular hostelries around the area for interested members and partners. Current dates are shown in the Calendar below.
Winter activities
During the winter months many members join the indoor bowling section which meets each week at Haslington, a local village. In addition to this we also visit the Shrewsbury Indoor Bowling Centre for special days out.
Activities March to October
From March until October the outdoor crown green bowling section meets twice weekly at the excellent Marriott House bowling green in the town with matches and competitions organised against other clubs including local Probus Clubs throughout the season. (Further details from our Secretary)
Day excursions and short Holiday Breaks
The day excursions which are very popular are organised through the year to many varied destinations and are well supported by members and guests. Visits include factories, museums and places of interest in the North and Midlands.
We also try and arrange a more substantial trip once a year.
