Round Corner Dural Probus Club

What a fantastic time we’ve had this month at Round Corner Dural Probus Club—truly a Life of Riley experience. Thirty enthusiastic members packed their bags and headed off on an unforgettable trip to Jindabyne. With stunning lakeview rooms for our accommodation, we were treated to three-course meals daily while each day was time to explore the best of the Snowy Mountains region.

Highlights included a visit to Cooma where we visited the information centre of the Snowy 2.0 project, learning about this feat of engineering. We continued on to Thredbo and Perisher, where we were lucky enough to see snow falling.

A gondola ride up the mountain offered breathtaking views. Visits to local museums provided a fascinating glimpse into the history of the area and of course, there was time to browse the local shops and take in the panoramic views from scenic lookouts.

At our monthly meeting we were treated to a very informative presentation from our guest speaker, who spoke about the pros and perils of Artificial Intelligence. It was an extremely interesting topic generating plenty of questions among members.

For our social outing this month we made our way into King Street Wharf to join the Naval Historical Society of Australia on a 3 hour cruise that showcased the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) activities and facilities in Sydney Harbour from 1788 to the present, especially during WW II, taking in the historical sites from Dawes Point to Watson’s Bay.

Round Corner Dural Probus Club meetings are held on the second Monday of each month at 9:30 am at The Galston Club.
