March 2023 CCW Meeting
Fellow Woodturners… Finally, a meeting is planned for Tuesday, March 7, 2023 at the Lyndon House Arts Center, 293 Hoyt Street, Athens! The meeting begins at 5:30 pm and ends by 8:30. If you can, come earlier to help with setup. We would like to have a good turnout to show support for the future of the club. New leadership is still needed so, we hope that this time-out has prompted someone to come forward to fill these positions. This meeting is hopefully a new start and a foretelling of future meetings. To show support, we plan to begin collecting dues and establish a new membership of faithful followers. We also plan a raffle to help provide funds for future demonstrators. So, remember to bring something for the raffle. Also, remember to bring something you have turned during this long layoff for the show-and-tell. Look forward to seeing you there!
