Callington Show’s new shed is up

A badly needed events shed has been built and should be usable in time for the 2023 Callington Show.

They say that it takes a village to raise a child, and in the case of the new shed at Callington, it takes a community to raise a shed.

The proof of this is that although the shed’s now up, local farmers Clive Wundersitz, Colin Wegener and Dennis Gravestocks have been busy laying pipes around it.

And there’s still a fair bit of work to go.

But a recent grant of $50,000 from the state government’s Thriving Communities Program means the $165,000 community shed will be built in time for this year’s Callington Show.
