Camrose & Area Men's Shed
r f i e g n n d i d s l h i ip u B Peter Ludwig (left), Willie McElroy, and Allan Thompson proudly show off several of the woodworking projects to which The Men’s Shed volunteers are currently devoting their time.
The Camrose & Area Men’s Shed has the unsurpassed distinction of being the first Men's Shed in the Province of Alberta. The local movement is about to celebrate 10 years of impressive success in the community. This group of men, who have spare time, a common interest in camaraderie and want to give back to their community constructively, meet weekly at the Camrose Museum grounds. The projects undertaken by this group are widespread and, on any given week, could range from woodwork, furniture repair, building garden sheds, little free libraries and book boxes, and volunteering around the Museum and for community events (event parking, painting, grill masters for community barbecues).
