Visitors are welcome to come along and see our Members in action. You can visit our workshops and get a feel for what the Club is all about.
On occasions, additional workshop hours/days do occur to accommodate an activity or sometimes just to fit in an extra workshop session during public holidays. If this happens, then notices will be posted at the Clubrooms or on our Home Webpage.
Safety in the workshop:
Wear comfortable casual clothing
Closed toe shoes must be worn at all times within the workshop and clubrooms
Safety glasses or eye protection must be worn in all workshops
Tie your hair back at all times - you don't want it to get caught in a machine
Observe all safety signage and instructions as directed
When in doubt, ask your Duty Officer
