Men's Sheds
We were a small shed starting February 2013. Up until May 2023 (our 10th Anniversary) we had 14 members and were operating from a shed 5m x 4.5m, not enough room to swing a cat but we keep active. On May the 6th 2023 we opened our new shed in Watson Street Murchison moving from a 22.5m2 shed to 288m2 new shed.
As the saying goes, "Build it and they will come", they have. Along with our 288m2 new shed we now have a membership of 24 and expanding.
