| PROBUS Club of Whitby-Brooklin |
SPEAKERS
Guest speakers are invited to join us and present on a wide variety of informative topics. Speakers are selected based on input from our members and from our speaker chair. Our Speaker Chair also interacts with other PROBUS Clubs in the Durham Region in order to share and gain knowledge of other clubs' speaker experiences. Non members can be invited by a member to attend a monthly meeting to hear a speaker. However, this can only happen once. The visitor will then be encouraged to join the club to hear a different speaker every month. |
