Probus South Pacific used FaceBook to invite retired and semi retired residents to attend an Information Session on Thursday 6 June 2024 at the Cecil Hills Community Centre. Fortythree residents accepted the invitation to attend the meeting.

The meeting was hosted by Monica Prasad and Elvis Law from Probus South Pacific Head Office in Parramatta.Thirtyfive residents attended the meeting and heard about the objectives of Probus Clubs and the many benefits of belonging to a Probus Club, including meeting like-minded people, enjoying outings and hearing from inspirational speakers. 

A resolution was passed to form the Cecil Hills Probus Club, sponsored by Rotary Club of Loganholme. A constitution was accepted. 

A management committee was formed:
