The Inaugural Meeting of the Saratoga/Davistown Probus Club was held at Davistown RSL Sub-branch Hall on Wednesday 15th October 1986, with a foundation membership of 15 members.  The Foundation President was Noel Tooth.  The current President is Erin Eyles

After a fire destroyed the meeting venue (Davistown RSL Bowling Club) in April 1990, the venue of Brentwood Village Recreation Hall was offered by then proprietor, John Klumper.  The club has met there ever since.

The decision to become a combined club was first discussed in 2009, and in 2012 women became members, with the first ladies joining the committee in 2013.  Joan Edwards became the first female President in 2014 and the membership is now 50/50 men and women

 In October 2016 the club celebrated its 30 year anniversary, with a splendid lunch at the Waterford Café, Kincumber. Several past presidents were able to attend.
