Murgon men now officially have their own shed … a place to make things, socialise and swap yarns.<\/p>\n

The shed, on former railway land in Macalister Street, has passed through a few hands before it could finally be handed over to the Murgon Men’s Shed group on Friday.<\/p>\n

Cr Kathy Duff, from South Burnett Regional Council, said Aurizon, Transport & Main Roads, Queensland Rail and finally the South Burnett Regional Council were involved in the ownership discussions.<\/p>\n

The culmination of months of work was the official handing over the keys to the shed by Deputy Premier and Member for Callide Jeff Seeney on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Mr Seeney said the Men’s Shed movement was “fantastic”, and a Men’s Shed was a great asset for any community.<\/p>\n

He joked that he was looking forward to spending time at one in the future “but that’s a while away yet”.<\/p>\n

Murgon Men’s Shed president Paul Pfeffer assured the Deputy Premier the shed would be put to good use.<\/p>\n

He said the group, which has 25 registered members already, has been meeting every Wednesday and just “marking time” until they had their own building.<\/p>\n

Mr Pfeffer said the Men’s Shed was a place where men could be socially active and build camaraderie and self-worth.<\/p>\n

It is non-denominational and is being auspiced by the Graham House Community Centre.<\/p>\n
