Menzshed Opening
Wonderful start to the weekend with Brian Davis welcoming all of our
guests to the Grand Opening of the St Martins Community Menzshed. Dugald Wilson cut the (4x2) ribbon, and an extended tour of the facilities and morning tea followed.
This Menzshed, for all of South Christchurch, is located at 43 St Martins Road behind the church (but independent of the church!). You can bring your own project or work on a group community project Wednesday and Saturday mornings. (You have to participate in health and safety briefings and training to use some of the machinery) There will be experienced guys on hand to give advice, and a warm welcome.
Menzshed is about learning skills, making new friendships, and doing projects for self and community.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
