The Probus Club of Toronto

Log in


Welcome to the PROBUS Club of Toronto, established in 2014 to create social and recreational opportunities for retired and semi-retired men and women.  The Club is a non-profit, volunteer-led organization.  All of our numerous activities and management functions are undertaken by the many members who are encouraged to lend their skills and time to make the Club a vibrant, well-run place of community and camaraderie.  By doing so, we are able to offer a wide range of social and recreational opportunities that reflect the interests and expertise of our members.

With monthly meetings and dozens of regular activities and special events, the Club is a place to meet new people, share interests, learn and try new things. Some of our most popular activities and events include book clubs, dining, walking and hiking, pickleball, theatre and the arts, writing and more.

Although the emphasis today is on socializing and shared interests, the PROBUS name which is an acronym for Pro(fessional) and Bus(iness), reflects an earlier rationale.  The Toronto Club is a member of PROBUS Canada in Ontario District No. 3.  For information about our national organization, visit the PROBUS Canada website.

Get Connected, Stay Connected.
