Dads Day Out - Colongra Bay

Dad's Day Out was a great success with a bright sunny day and none of the wind and rain that has been hanging about over the last few weeks.

The Mobile Men's Shed was kept busy supporting up to 17 workstation for the construction of tissue boxes. All the available equipment was fully engaged including
  • 15 lightweight steel handled hammers
  • 5 medium weight wooden hammers
  • 2 full size hammers
  • 9 mitre clamps

Over 120 tissue boxes were constructed by kids with the assistance of dads and mums, siblings and grandpaprents on the day. Given the intense activity, varied levels of skills and mix of young and old there was just good cooperative building going on not a harsh word but many a happy face.

Most of the boxes built had some careful decoration with crayon and tatoos, paint and glitter to finish of a project for kids and families to treasure.
