Last year the MenShed team at the Wanaka Community Workshop placed a couple of beach toy libraries on the shore line of Lake Wanaka. They have proved popular with younger kids who access toys to play in the sand.
Over time the library’s receive new toys which are deposited by parents. They toys also get a hard time and every so often MenShed team members visit and complete a tidy up.
Recently a broken plastic chair was removed but the decision was to replace it with robust wooden version build from recycled materials.
The chair is now complete and doing sterling service on the lake shore.
Great story.
