Lucky enough to have a meeting with the people running The Huddle down at Aegis Park on Monday, my employer is looking at partnering with them in the near future. It really is a great community centre and you can tell by speaking to these guys that they genuinely care for the local community.
Funny story - There is a wall in The Huddle full of little sheets of paper with "My special place is..." and kids have been asked to complete the sentence. Some of the responses are really deep like "in my mind" or "in a dark quiet room".....others wrote things like "my bedroom" or "with my family" but while casting an eye over the hundreds of responses I came across one that caused me to burst out laughing (much to the shock of my non AFL supporting manager who was trying to be all serious).
The paper read "My special place is.....Nar Nar Goon"
You guessed it:
If you have a chance you really should pop your head in and have a look at what they do and if you have anything to offer ie volunteering then I urge everyone to get involved, couldn't be more proud of my club and this initiative.
