Community and charity workRight from the start, it was envisaged that the Eurobodalla Woodies would have a lively role in community and charity work.That lofty aim was realised from the start, and continues today. A playground with a difference! Several Woodies took on a project to
provide play equipment for the Mogo playground.A
small reserve in between the businesses on the
Highway that runs through the retail section of Mogo
Village.
The logs came from the remains of the Runnyford Bridge which needed replacing.      Finished and ready to go!   The Moruya and District Historical
Society The MDHS had a phone box sadly in need
of restoration.It had seen better days and was in bad
shape.The Woodies were asked if they could
do anything. Unfortunately the job became a rebuild
not a restoration as much of the box had modern
'repairs'. Some parts of the box were usable, such
as the metal roof however most of the main carcass had to be
replaced. 
   Leaning up against the bench to the right of the box you can see the discarded useless pieces of the box that were unusable.     Ken
giving the phone box a touch up before it leaves the
shed.
Handover day  The Woodies construction team handed over the refurbished box to David Montgomery and Huon Hassall of the Moruya Historical Society.    The box was carefully carried and packed
into the trailer ready for it's return journey to
the Museum.

Moruya Historical Museum.
 All that's left is to find a suitable handle for the door and install a telephone as close to the originals as possible. A swing seat for Nardy House
