Our next meeting is January 8, 2020! @ 7pm

Annual Dues!  Please bring cash or check in the amount of $50 for annual dues!

     This January is our annual club election.  If you feel like you would like to become more of an integral role in the operations of the club, this is the time to let us know.  If not this year, then maybe next year.  

     On tap for our next January 8, 2020 meeting, we are proud to have Mike Zaslav, our club founder, visit us and speak about how the club got started.  He will share his experience and work with Master Woodworker James Krenov at the College of the Redwoods in California.  There are many new members to the club that have not yet met Mike, and this will be your opportunity.  Even if you have not been active in a while, why not come out for a reunion as a guest! 

     We will also be raffling off another $50.00 gift from Lie-Nielsen.

See you then, and Happy Holidays!

Our next meeting is December 11th, 2019 at 7:00PM

     Our next meeting is our annual Holiday Party.  All members and their significant others are welcome to attend.  All members are encouraged to bring an appetizer, main course, or dessert.  Please notify Scott Goldstein what dish you will be bringing so that we have a wide variety of food. 

     We would also like to Thank “Lie-Nielsen Toolworks” for their generous donations.  As woodworkers we appreciate the quality and precision craftsmanship that goes into a Lie-Nielsen Tool.  Every woodwoker should have a few Lie-Nielsen tools in their workshop.  Please click on the link to the right to visit the Lie-Nielsen Toolworks website. 

Our Next Meeting is November 13, 2019

     Also we will be taking orders for club apparel.  Please bring cash or check.
