For five years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 24 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Maple Park, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $500.
It will serve about 196 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in November and everyone is invited.
We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $500 goes:
• Materials: $370
• Permits and inspections: $30
• Safety equipment and signage: $55
• Tools hire and delivery: $45
Glad we found this place.

Great idea, hope you get there. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
