Malcolm Lamb was elected to Life Membership on 10 June 1981 at the 17th Annual General Meeting. He commenced his service to the Association as a Committee member, Club official and school rowing master.
Like his ANU Boat Club colleague David Walters, Malcolm took over from the first generation of the Association’s administrators who came from extensive rowing backgrounds in Victoria and New South Wales. They maintained the high standards set by these seasoned officials. As Honorary Secretary from 1972-1975, Malcolm contributed constructively and impartially to discussion of issues and maintained excellent lines of communication with member clubs and schools. He also served as Vice President from 1975-1978 and in 1979-80.
Malcolm joined the staff of Canberra Grammar School and served as Rowing Master. In this role his work underpinned much of Grammar’s rowing success in the 1970s.
