A Day In The Park With A Side Of Pancakes

Is there any better way to spend a belated Father’s Day than enjoying pancakes and play in the park?

The men’s group, International Men's Day Mackay Incorporated, incorporating Shed Happens Mackay, is celebrating Father’s Day in partnership with Northern Beaches Neighbourhood Watch this Saturday, September 10 with a day of pancakes and family games, sponsored by DGH Engineering.

Neighbourhood Watch will be offering pancakes, jam and cream for free on the day while Shed Happens will conduct the day’s games, all designed for the whole family to participate.

Shed Happens is an organisation that treasures and celebrates the role men play in our society.

It meets on the third Wednesday of every month and is a non-threatening, non-judgmental place where men can share their stories; the good, the bad, happy and sad.

It is a place where men are encouraged to live a wholesome life.

Neighbourhood Watch is a volunteer organisation that is integral to the effective policing of our city.

The more people who sign up to the blog and register their email addresses with Neighbourhood Watch, the more they contribute to reducing crime in Mackay.

The morning commences at 10:30am and finishes at 2:30pm, happening at the Mackay Sugar Bowl Skate Park in North Mackay.

More information can be found on Shed Happens Mackay and Mackay Northern Beaches Neighbourhood Watch Facebook pages.

This event is only possible with the financial support of Mackay Regional Council.
