Erecting Christmas Street Decorations – Sun 29th Nov

November 23, 2015 By Paul L'Huillier

The 'boys' hard at it!

The ‘boys’ hard at it!

This Sunday 29th November at 4pm the Shed will be erecting the Street Christmas Decorations like it has done for the past three years. We do this on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce and are paid $500 for the erection and dismantling.

We need six helpers to do the job. It takes about 3 hours. We borrow the scaffolding from NE Home Improvement Co (see photo). If you can spare some time it would be appreciated.

Campbell Ford houses the decorations and we need to collect from him. Meet outside the Mt Beauty Hardware & Drapery Store at 4pm.

Please contact Paul L’Huillier (Secretary) by Friday 27th November if you can assist.  Email: <paullhuillier@bigpond.com> Mobile: 0400 056 247 or Tel: 03 5754 4606.
