Badger Creek & District Men’s Shed Farewell Kai

On Mon 12 May, the Badger Creek & District Men’s Shed (Healesville) farewelled their youngest member, Kai Goodman (19). Kai is moving to Melbourne and will soon commence a trade training course. Kai has been with the Shed for one and a half years and over that time has become a valuable member of the team learning to use Shed equipment, undertaking his own projects and being involved with all other Shed activities. Shed members joke that it was their skill and obvious expertise that pointed Kai in the direction of starting his Carpentry Cert 2 course at the Melbourne Polytechnic (Heidelberg Campus).

Over a lunch of hamburgers, Kai was presented with a Carpenter’s Tool Belt and wished all the best for his course and for where life takes him in the future.
