KUWEAN? - What is a “KUWEAN”?
Members of PROBUS clubs are generally known as PROBIANS
Taking the first two letters of “Ku-Ring-Gai” and “West” gives “KuWe” the name we have given to our newsletter*
And it is always written KuWe! - note the capitals and the “!”
"KuWe!" is a homophone of "Cooee" the Aussie clarion call to assemble, to meet..
Thus KuWe! is symbolic of the core aim of our Probus Club - to meet for fun and fellowship
So in the Ku-Ring-Gai West Probus club we refer to ourselves as Kuweans.
AND "Kuwean" is used throughout this web site
(sort of makes sense if you don't think too hard on it:-)
But KUWEANS can also refer to themselves as PROBIANS because KUWEANS are not big on "SHOULDING".
