Life Membership Award
GMV’s own Wayne Gallasch was presented with his South Australian SABBA Life Membership. Here is what the official programme said:
“Wayne has had a long association with SABBA, starting back in 1964 when he first competed in front of SABBA judges, to 1967 where he placed second in the South Australian Championships of that year. He came back in 1968 to win the title of Mr. South Australia. Not only a competitor, Wayne has also given his time on the SABBA committee for many years, and served as President in the 80s. Wayne is still very much involved with the sport, especially as he is the official videographer of SABBA and NABBA, on the Australian and also International scene.” (See photo below.)
