Dannevirke Probus Club is looking forward to a busy year following its annual meeting on Wednesday.
The club has had a strong presence in the town and will continue to do so as it celebrates 25 years in October.

Holden said the club is keen to boost its membership and says it has a lot of offer.
"Probus is about having fun, fellowship and friendship and it has a number of special interest groups," he said.
Among the activities are cards, cribbage, Mahjong, gym, walking, Sunday lunch, dining out and about, memoirs group, antiques and collectibles, embroidery, gardening, heirlooms and dancing.
The memoirs group meets monthly to provide ideas and to encourage the recording of Gifts for Grandchildren, personal snippets of things as they used to be and experiences of the past.
Holden said Probus, the name of which is made up of the words business and professional, is for retired or semi-retired people.
