Santa's Workshop

Rob from Tamahere

The Hamilton Community Men's Shed offers men and women the opportunity to attend a supervised toy making workshop, to be held on five Thursday evenings from 7 to 9pm in November. Our shed is at the Ward Park Arts Complex, 2 Seddon Road.

The cost is $80 per person, covering all materials, (includes recycled Kauri timber) tools and tutor time. We will have samples and ideas of toys that you can make. Free membership of the shed to June 2019 is also included. Participants will be limited to the first 10 applicants.

The workshop is based on 'make and donate', with at least one toy to be given to our chosen charity, plus you will be able to make additional toys to keep for yourself.

Check out the course details on our Facebook page www.facebook.com...

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
