Shark Project

Men's Sheds Central Coast is hosting a Morning Tea at the Central Coast Marine Discovery Centre at Terrigal for a briefing on the Shark Project, a promotion and fundraising opportunity.

The proposal is that Men’s Sheds on the Central Coast build projects that will be installed in the gardens surrounding the Central Coast Marine Discovery Centre.

These installations might be practical like a garden seat or more decorative like a totem pole. They might be made from a variety of materials like timber, metal or other materials that will stand up to outside installation and be durable enough for display over the period of the competition.

The competition will entail a judging panel and/or votes from the public to determine prizes. There will be prizes of cash, materials or other offerings from sponsors. First prize will be about $500 value.

Installations will be auctioned at the end of the judging. The proceeds of this auction will allow fundraising for both the sheds involved and the Marine Discovery Centre.

Projects will need to be completed by early December to be installed for the
School Holidays. This is a busy time of year for attendance at the Marine Discovery Centre and will give the installations and Men’s Sheds high profile among the tourist influx.
