Peter grew up in a family that volunteered in various ways and with different groups, which led him to volunteer from an early age. In late 2002, his involvement with the local Basketball Association introduced him to the Rotary Club of Altona, where he pitched for, received, and reported on funding for the establishment of two senior Rep teams.
The President of Altona at the time, Lois Buckingham, invited Peter to join the club. With his background and familiarity with the members, he accepted the offer. In May 2003, Peter was formally inducted and has remained a member of Altona, having served as President four times and held nearly every other role.
Peter also took on the position of Assistant Governor four times and has served on various District Committees. He is notably recognized as the stage manager, known as the "man in black," for successive District Conferences.
With experience in administration, project management, and customer service, Peter now combines these skills as part of the management team at the historic Queen Victoria Market, where he has been since 2013.
The theme fro Peter's presentation will be Uniting for Good, the power of collaboration
