Life Member ~ John Bayliss
At the 2016 AGM , much to the surprise of John Bayliss, he was made a Life Member of the club. Each club member should not be surprised. In fact there main comment has been “about time”.
John has been president of the club since 2009. In those 7 years he has forged the club into the successful organisation it is today. John has managed his committee into being a committed, productive & efficient team. John has a vision of how the club should be and step by step he guided the team in that direction. Initially, the concern was to ensure the growth of the finances. Each year there has been a regular income to enable the purchase of new machinery and equipment, the extension of club storage areas and the funding to support the manufacture of toys. Next year it is probable the number of BBQ’s Bunnings will allow us will be reduced. Already he is thinking of other ways to bring in the money. It could be by selling cakes at Bunnings or perhaps even the club produce.
John is also a great humanitarian. He has an amazing number of contacts and friends in the community. Consequently he is approached to talk at various clubs and asked to have the club support any number of community projects. He is always alert and concerned to the welfare of members and where he sees people should slow down he continually monitors and encourages them to do so.
Besides the club his other passion is dancing. He tells anyone who in interested “on the peninsula there are places where you can dance every day of the week”.
