Introducing Brian Tyedin
Brian first became a Rotarian when he joined the Rotary Club of Glen Waverley in 1979 – 1981, he then had a little break of 18 years before joined the Rotary Club of Templestowe in 1999. Changes occurred that saw the Rotary Club of Templestowe amalgamate with the Rotary Club of Manningham resulting in the Rotary Club of Manningham City. Brian has had many roles in Rotary including as past president. He is a retired dentist, and has ran a private practice for 47 years. One of his hobbies, which he now says is more than just a hobby, is as a presenter on community radio station 96.5 inner FM. He started there 9 years ago and has been the president of the radio station for the past 3 years.
Brian is married to Jenny and they have 2 adult children and 2 grand children. Brian has played a variety of sports, and trained in martial arts of varying styles over many years. He keeps fit with gym swimming, tai chi and ballroom dancing. Brian says he is Diet conscious, aiming for the a Mediterranean type diet with Asian flavours and a touch of chilli. He goes easy on alcohol and drinks mainly water. Brian likes to attend Church on Sundays to give thanks, settle the soul and reset for the next week. He tells the story of his football team North Melbourne, when they were winning a lot of games, how Arden St was always packed with supporters, indeed standing room only. A few changes these days. Have a great year Brian T.
