We have decided to use local talent for the demonstrators. Metro Atlanta and surrounding area has a great abundance of very talented very accomplished turners. We have arranged for 5-6 turners to take one hour rotations in the main turning area. Hours are set at 9 am to 3 pm. Door Prize/Raffle at 2 pm In addition we will have at least 4 other lathe stations outdoors: One dedicated to people who have never turned One dedicated for pen turning One To Be Determined, but probably rotate between various demos One for various bowl turning, green wood, natural edge, etc. May add more lathes if needed In addition to turning, marquetry demos are confirmed, scroll saw demos are confirmed, food for purchase is confirmed, home made ice cream for purchase is confirmed. We have a few commercial vendors and lots of swap meet folks confirmed. The response has been super positive and we are expecting between 250 and 400 folks and their wives and teenaged kids. Could be more it's hard to say, but it is looking terrific. See you there. Ron Brown, Tom Jeans, Don Russell UPDATE:
