Men's Sheds
Magnetic Island Men's Shed Inc was commenced by an interest group in 2012and was incorporated in 2013. It has recently achieved Charitable status.
It originally operated out a Community Council Building in Horseshoe Bay, but it only had a makeshift workshop. It has recently moved to Picnic Bay, where it has established a proper larger sized fully equipped workshop, kitchen and member's social room and library. We now have monthly breakfasts with guest speakers; afternoon get togethers, and functions, and heip out the local community with BBQs and other social occasions. We overlook the picturesque Magnetic Island Golf Course.
Like all other Men's Sheds, our principal focus is on men's health and well being. We put a high value on companionship and mutual support amongst our members, and believe very much in the benefits of laughter.
