The regular Momday morning walking group will leave the entrance to our Shed at 9:30am for a 1 hour walk around the Showgrounds and adjoining Claremont area. All members are welcome to attend and participate in this Health And Wellbeing Group initiative. Following the walk, we shall indulge in some fresh scones, jama nd cream at the regular Monday morning smoko at the Shed. We would welcome as many members as possible to join us for a great walk and opportunity for even better fellowship.  

The Flight Simulator is now in basic manual operating mode, bar the occasional problems which we are learning to correct. The Core Operating Group (Calvin Munro, Mike Glasson, Tony Strickland and myself) are now looking to expand the Group to ensure we have a sufficient number of members who are capable of starting up, flying and shutting down the Sim. This will enable us to provide a broader service to the general Shed membership who are mainly interested in the occasional joy flight, as well as the proposed activity during the Royal Show. The expanded Operating Group will then look to utilising the full capabilities of the Sim, such as autopilot, active weather and aircraft movements, etc.  To this end the current Group will hold an information session in the main Meeting Room on Monday 22 July, starting at 9a m. We can conclude prior to morning tea (including scones!) and then walk down to the Sim for some real action. If you have a keen interest in getting more involved in operating the Sim, rather than just a passing curiosity, we would welcome your attendance. Contact Nick Bagshaw (nickbagshaw44@gmail.com) if you want more information prior to the meeting.

Join everyone in our cosy meeting room  for fresh baked scones, jam and cream with friendly companionship. All existing members as well as any prospective members are welcome.

Dear SCMS Kitchen Team Member, To refresh our knowledge, Masterchef Simon Benwell will run another of his Pizza-making Masterclasses to pass on the secrets on how to make delicious "Pizzas à la Simon" at the Men's Shed. Simon will cover all stages of the process starting with making of the Red Sauce, the pizza balls, firing of the wood-fired oven and the prep and cooking of his delicious pizzas. The masterclass will be "hands-on" for all participants and the end result will be enjoyed as a group lunch. The ultimate aim of this masterclass is to introduce more SCMS kitchen team members to our Pizza-making process and help in running Pizza events when Simon might not be available in future. Please grab a FREE ticket for this event to help us gauge interest and purchase the required amount of ingredients to feed everybody. We will obviously have to watch the weather forecast closely since this is an outdoor event and there is a risk we might have to re-schedule the Masterclass at a later date. We hope you can join us for this free event. Best regards, Werner

Woodworking Machinery Induction (Blue Dot) – Phases 1 & 2 All Members who wish to use the woodworking machinery in the Machine Room will need to complete Phase 1 & Phase 2 of the Woodworking Machinery Induction Training. Please Note that Members must have completed the Red Dot course before enrolling in this Blue Dot course? This Course will be conducted in two Phases over two consecutive weeks (9am - 12pm) so you must be able to commit to both sessions before purchasing a ticket. Each Phase will be approximately a three hour duration. There will be a maximum of 3 persons for each Session. The Cost of this course (for both Phases) is $20.  If after booking, for some reason you cannot attend the training, please advise Michael Cahill on 0459062090 as soon as possible, so we can arrange another session for you.  If you cancel or are a “no show” on the day you will lose your $20 fee so please, only book if you can commit to the two consecutive weeks. Payments can be made online by secure credit card.  Once you have completed both phases of the Woodworking Machinery Induction your Membership Badge will be updated to replace the Red Dot with a Blue Dot.  This will reflect that you have completed all the necessary Woodworking Training and are ready to undertake any Woodworking projects in the Shed.

We all know that walking a great exercise and exercise is the best strategy to stay healthy and able to do all the things you really enjoy doing (like drinking wine and eating food).  But doing it by yourself is not always easy or fun. The Health and Wellbeing Committee invite all memebers to come and join in a relaxed walk around the showgrounds and/or surrounding area.  It will be an opportunity to get your "steps" in for the day, meet other members and then enjoy morning tea back at the shed. The aim is to make this a regular weekly event. Depending on interest we may look at other days but we thought getting your exercise for the week on track is a good idea.

All supervisors are invited to attend a half day First Aid course run by St John Ambulance on Friday 12 July 2024.  There is a limit of 20 attendees so please book early.  The Shed will cover the cost for supervisors but if you book and don't attend then you will be expected to refund the $92 per person cost to the Shed.  If we don't have 20 supervisors by 31 May 2024 then the training will be opened to Group Leaders and Management Committee members.
