Looking forward to AMSA Conference 2013.  Follow the conference on twitter topic #AMSA2013.  What factors do other shedders think are important to the long term vitality of the men's shed movement? The value of the evaluation process to sustainability generally is one factor that has special interest for our Keysborough shedders.
