THE Entrance Men’s Shed celebrated a milestone recently with the official opening of its new training room and shed extension.The facility is a welcome addition for the group which meet Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 9am and 3pm and has 31 members.“It means we can eat our morning tea or lunch without the dust,” Shed president Bob Ihlein said.

“It also means the office is out of the dust and we can now use the telephone without the noise.”
The extension was built with various grants. Wyong Mayor Bob Graham and The Entrance State Liberal MP Chris Spence were guests at the official opening.

“We had various state government grants and the council which built the original shed really helped out with the necessary approvals,” Mr Ihlein said.

“Our treasurer Peter Whitehead was the driving force in getting the work done in council applications, finding contractors and overseeing construction which was no mean feat.”

Mr Spence said men’s sheds were fantastic.
