Men's Shed group organised a Men's health awareness & checkup day for yesterday. Previosly, such events had drawn around 50 visitors, so we catered for that number again. There was a special prize, a big sandwich press donated by a major healthcare group which was to go to the shed with the most representatives along.

Disappointingly, only three other Sheds sent representatives. One was the organisations's State President, one was from the other Shed in this town and the other fellow was the man who developed the program in the first place.

There were probably about 25 people there, half of them being our Shed's members. So we get to keep the sandwich press.

We'll certainly never hold that event again. It had been publicised very widely for several months, reminder notices sent out regularly. APATHY RULES.
