Green Island - Fairfield Probus Club

Welcome to the Green Island - Fairfield Probus Club

With a focus on social connections and leisure, the Green Island - Fairfield Probus Club serves as an ideal hub for semi-retired and retired men in New Zealand. This men's only club emphasises monthly social meetings featuring engaging speakers, complemented by regular outings that encourage exploration and bonding. Many members are former professionals or business people embracing active retirement, creating a supportive environment for sharing experiences and enjoying downtime.
