Necessary items:

  • Obtain 2 sheds: have a shed/outdoor building company sponsor this feature to give them additional exposure at the event. Not only will they be mentioned each time the feature is mentioned, He Shed She Shed sponsored by ..... but encourage interviews to take place in or next to the buildings for on-air viewing.
  • Hire a decorator to decorate the sheds accordingly and that decorator willing to give away those display elements to the winner for the trade in advertising.

  • Incorporate a sign-up and give one of the buildings away—winner chooses HE shed or SHE shed.
