Chapter Stalwarts - Greater Vancouver Woodturners Guild

Brian Lunt

Brian’s motto is, “Just get it done.” He’s the first and last at club meetings for setup. He planned and built our AV system and moderates both in-person and remote meetings and is keeping abreast with the technology needed to implement hybrid meetings. He looks for gaps and magically fills them in and makes it work. For our Turning classes he finds the green wood, cuts up the wood, delivers it to the class, and spends the entire weekend, in the wings, making sure that the students and instructor are properly equipped — no one asked him to do this — he just knew it needed to be done.

He’s our communications hub, composing all of our entertaining and informative alerts and notices and personally welcomes each and every new member that joins. When someone needs help, he is the first one to jump in. Rather than ask if he can help, Brian will just be there. The GVWG is a really good club. Brian makes it a GREAT Club!
