LETS South Committee Member Profiles

 

Rodney's profile is rapidly disappearing under his prolific beard,which serves as a camouflage from which to ambush unsuspecting Willunga Waldorf School parents who have not paid their LETS South Membeships on time.Having joined LETS South in 2007, he was co-opted onto the Committee to liase with the WWS, which is a LETS South Member itself and has a significant Membership amongst the parents.

He is valued most by his fellow Committee members, however, for the quality of the catering when meetings are held at his place.He lives with his wife, two sons, four chooks and three hives of bees.

Webperson's Note: Rodney is chiefly valued for his sense of humour and pertinent input into meetings!The catering is pretty special too!

Chairperson/Public Officer/Membership Co-ordinator/ Blogger/Tweeter  Liz has been a Member of LETS South for about 14 years and involved with the Committtee for more than a few.She has a strong belief in the Principles of LETS and is committed to promoting LETS South and the values which keep it running.

She has a grown-up daughter, who keeps her informed and in line, spends her retirement working hard and breeds geese.She has read that LETS people are "rebels and revolutionaries" and believes this has an element of truth.                         

 

Over the past 14 years, since Richard  became a Member of LETS South, he has been involved in the Management Committee, for much of that time.  He holds the roles of Newsletter Editor and compiles the Resource Guide. Richard is also Office Coordinator and has just taken on the role of Webmaster. His past roles have included: Chairperson,       Market Co-ordinator & Area Co-ordinator.

Being a committed member of any community group presents its own challenges and LETS is no different in that respect. If by what I do I can effect a positive change then my work is worthwhile.

Richard was a candidate for emigration to South Australia from the age of seven and finally achieved his goal 15 years ago.His lives just outside Willunga on a piece of paradise and is surrounded by birds and two cats.

 

                                                                

Barb has previously been involved in community organisations such as Neighbourhood Watch, Adult Literacy in the Community, and the Safety House programme, in addition to those organisations related to her (now adult) children's interests and activities. She has been a Member of LETS for a little over 3 years and loves the idea of "Community working for the benefit of community" and the barter concept.

She  held the position of Minute Secretary for 12 months, and has again, taken on the role of Treasurer (and now Transaction Coordinator) for LETS South and enjoys meeting other LETS members and finally being able to put faces to the names.

  Elinor  is the Secretary - her profile will follow shortly.
