Manno Men’s Shed -
15 members – meeting with Wyong Council. Has identified 5 sites for WSC to look at. Brochures being printed – logo decided. Membership waning because meeting too often (weekly) and nowhere to do activities. Meeting was monthly
but losing members. Meetings now to go to fortnightly. Manno first community making job - Chocolate Wheel for community.
Wyong Men’s Shed: All info on MSCC website. DA in and hoping to be operational by Christmas.
Kincumber Men’s Shed: Wally indicated they have gone through structural change. Management committee formerly stood down due to insurance coverage issues. They are in need of administration support and maybe will have 2 ladies involved– coffee tables, rocking aeroplanes have evolved from three trailer loads of wood turning material. The good news is that we got half of the CDSE funds and Davistown provided$4,500.
