Earlier today I was in Batlow for the official opening of the Batlow Men's Shed, with Federal Member for Eden-Monaro, Kristy McBain.

The effort to get the Men's Shed up and running was led by Batlow Rotary Clubs, with support from regional NSW and ACT Rotary clubs and local businesses.

A generous donation of $15,000 from the Wagga Yazidi community following the bushfires really kick started the whole project.

Great to see Batlow bouncing back after the devastation of the fires.

Congratulations to all involved!
