Report written by Liz (She/her)

Share the love

A tropical evening for a longer 8km round trip to AFC Powerstation Youth Zone in Mortlake made for a hot start to the task. Arriving at the club, we were first shown the completed gym refurb that we helped start on our last visit - it looked amazing!

Task owner Danielle asked us to help with two tasks: getting out the staging and checking it was all in good order for band nights, and chopping up the pineapple and watermelon that had been received from City Harvest so that it could be frozen for smoothies later in the week.

The stage team were so excited by their efforts that fruit chopping was halted for a great team photo, latex gloves and all! 🤣

Stage complete, fruit bagged up and everyone re-watered and ready to run we said our goodbyes and headed off into the evening sun. ☀️
