The Shed
Imagine a place with the atmosphere of your very own shed; tools, wood, metal, paint, half finished projects; with the benefit of having other people around who might just have an easier way to do something or some tips on how to do it if you are unsure. Lots of people with the same interests, classes where you can share your knowledge with others, space to sit and have some lunch or a cuppa and a chat. A place designed for a range of activities but one that has very specific times and activities exclusively for blokes.

The Traralgon Neighbourhood Learning House is currently working on establishing a “Men's Shed.” In reality it will probably be a multi purpose facility that many community organisations will have access to and offering an array of activities however the initial emphasis is on getting a shed happening.

The shed is a long term project for the Neighbourhood House and is in the process of forming a group of men who would be interested in helping to achieve the goal of having a shed.

In addition we are seeking input from any community members who feel they have something to contribute initially:
Are you interested in helping with
                  sourcing funding
                  able to help financially
                  contribute to applications and submissions for funding
                  assist with networking
                  assist with promotion
                  be involved in a working committee
When the shed is established you might like to
                  volunteering time to supervise activities
                  involvement in running the facility
                  assist with ongoing networking
                  assist with ongoing promotion
Or you might like to use the facilities:
