Lectern For Kariong Neighbourhood Centre
We were approached by Jean Lawrie who asked if it was possible for us to make a Lectern for the Kariong Neighbourhood Centre.
Tony Stoker and Colin Faithfull set to work and a week later we informed Jean that it was finished.
Today we presented the Manager of the Centre, Fiona Simpson with the Lectern.
We had Morning Tea and were given a Tour of the facility.
It is a credit to Fiona and her Staff for the excellent venue which offers so much to the people of Kariong and surrounding district.

SHED UPDATE
Work on the Front Building is progressing slowly.
We still have no vehicle access which means that those with disabilities are unable to traverse the pathway down to the shed. Despite this inconvenience, a number of members are still turning up on Mondays and Fridays . When the new driveway has been poured and we have full access once again, I will advise via this Blog. Watch this space.
