How did they do it in the old days?

---

Members are returning to the Daniel Parrish Witter Agricultural Museum for all 13 days of the 2022 New York State Fair demonstrating just that!  No electric power, just human power! We were not there in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the Museum remained closed in 2021.  We return in 2022 to show how farmers and other artisans used tools like chisels, planes, saws, treadle scrollsaws, treadle lathes, spring pole lathes, and even the shaving horse to make furniture, bowls, toys, or whatever 100 years ago! 
     This year we have 10 great prizes (see photo below) in our raffle with monies received from these sales used by the club to enhance the club's educational programs.  Additionally, we have almost 700 tops available to purchase.  All proceeds from the tops sales go to either The Kara Fund or the McMahon/Ryan Child Advocacy Center. 

We are Looking Forward to Seeing You
​at the 2022 New York State Fair!
