Join Us! |

Plan to join other members at the Saturday Workshop on March 15th at the Eight Acres Event Center! All members are invited to attend. The weather requires us to restrict tool usage to a turning only workshop as the outside area is not heated. Please come to purchase consumables, wood, or just to chat with folks. Members will be sent an email to remind them and provide the address 1-2 days before workshop day.
We ask that you try to pre-register and tell us what you are planning to work on or need help with so we are prepared. We look forward to seeing you! We hope to have the doors wide open if the weather cooperates!
NOTE: Guests are welcome but if they want to do any hands-on work (like turn) there is a $5 one-day membership fee. If the guest joins the club within one month, that $5 fee is deducted from their membership fee.
