MENZSHED, Hastings Inc. Where to find us.

Hi All. Yes, we've moved from 707 Sylvan Road, to the the A&P Showgrounds, and much bigger premises, bigger workshops, bigger projects, and bigger hopes of helping the Hastings Community with their big or little problems. Our charges range from Cakes, biscuits, $donations, and your word of mouth Adverts about us to your friends and neighbours. With 70 (odd) retired members, with a wealth of knowledge, and now women members, there are not many problems we cannot solve. (Above, I used the word ODD, which can be taken any way you like). I'm the Chairman and they call me Molly. Now that's odd. Here's a map of where to find us now. Call in for a tour. Ric (Molly), 021 2140624. Email chairman@menzshedhastings.co.nz

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
