Men's Sheds
The High Country Men's Shed was officially opened in July 2012. The High Country Men's Shed is located in Omeo in East Gippsland's High Country. It is an informal space in which any interested men of the community can come together to share knowledge and technical skills, work on projects (individual or community) or have a cuppa and a yarn with other like minded shedders. Our men's shed coordinator and dedicated volunteers ensure that the shed is made available on a regular weekly basis. There is no membership fee at the High country men's shed and the membership is valid from 1st August 2018 til 31st June 2023. To join, complete the High Country Men's Shed 'Membership Registration' form and return to Omeo District Health Reception.
