New Sheddie Villager Group - this Sunday 19th Jan

Picture

We recently put together a group who are going to take some plots at Peregian Veggie Village. The plot hire is sponsored by Auspost as part of their 2020 community collaboration grant. We haven't come up with a name for them yet - let's call them the 'Sheddie Villagers' for now :-) . If you want to get involved in growing organic vegetables, and maybe participating in a roster to maintain the plot(s) please join them for the working bee at Peregian Veggie Village this Sunday from 9am . You will be introduced to how the veggie villaged works,  talk plots. Covered shoes, hat, protective clothing are required. Morning tea is at 10.00am. Please book in to let us know you are coming or email us to be added to the mailing list.

Noosa Park Walk with Marie this Sunday

Picture
How about a lovely walk through Noosa National Park on Sunday? It's the perfect weather for it. As well as our popluar Monday walk, this week Marie is organising  a walk this Sunday starting from Park Edge Road, Sunshine Beach at 7.30 am. 

You can park on Parkedge Road as not a lot of tourists know this spot. We will then meet near the entry and go from there.

Pack a snack and a drink and we can have a sit down, a chat and overlook the awesome view of Laguna Bay.

If time permits,we can have a cuppa somewhere afterwards.

Look forward to seeing you there !! Comment in the FB event or book on our website to let us know you are coming. No cost to members :-)

Sheddies Sizzle Their Way To Success

Picture
Stirling effort from our sizzlers this week as we sold 550 sausages at Bunnings and raised over $600 for the shed. Thanks ladies for your help - we are looking for more people to do shorter shifts at our slot on the 28th January - please get in touch if you can help :-) Special thanks to Danie who helped with the prep and stayed the entire day and to the Coolum Men's Shed who lent us equipment and a float and lots of inside knowledge!


Sharp Sheddies Off To A Great Start - next quiz Tuesday 21st Jan

Picture

The 'Sharp Sheddies' made their debut at the Coolum Beach Surf Club Quiz night this week, and although there were some controversial answers, did a great job - we even won one of the rounds! The team name of the night definitely went to 'Trivia Newton John '. We will be going to the quiz night for the next 3 weeks to get the team established, and then make our plans for trivia domination!- if you want to join our team just let us know by booking on the website.

Eco Dye Workshops with Margaret Moon, 4th and 11th and February

Picture

Coming up in February we are really lucky to have Margaret Moon from EcoDye Queensland providing 2 workshops on Eco Dyeing. On the 4th Febreuary she will be taking you through how to use local plants to dye paper which can then be crafted into cards, or used in collage, or any other artistic use you can think of! ($25 for members). Then on the 11th February, Margaret will take you through the basics of Eco dyeing with silk, with a silk scarf to take home included in the price of $35 for members. Margaret's interest in Eco dyeing began when she moved to Boreen point. Margaret is donating her time as a fundraiser for the shed and therefore we are able to offer this workshop for the bargain price of $25 . These spots won't last long - book here https://www.thewomensshed.org/bookings.html

Our purpose - connection through recreation

Our purpose is to connect the women of Coolum and surrounds by providing opportunities to participate in a broad range of recreation-based activities on a regular or casual basis.

We believe that regular participation in recreational activities with others promotes a sense of connection and contributes to a person’s wellbeing in many ways.

Our space, away from responsibilities of home and work, allows women a chance to focus on their needs and build supportive friendships with women of all life stages and backgrounds.

Connection is our key motivator for sustained participation in activities that contribute to health and wellbeing. Ongoing participation has a longer lasting and greater benefit to women than one-off or short courses. We use the phrase ‘Connection through Recreation’ to express our purpose but there are many more benefits associated with membership of the shed.

The Coolum Women's Shed Inc is a registered not-for-profit IA58358
