Calendar of Events

Meetings start at 9:00AM and usually run to 3:00PM. Setup starts at 8:00, so come early and help out. Stay late to help clean up as well. Everything goes smoother with a little help from our members. Thanks!

Officer Board meetings are usually held on a weekday following a Saturday meeting. However, since it is often rescheduled to best meet the availability of board members, please contact the president or one of the officers to find out the meeting time and to let them know you are coming in the event it changes. Members are welcome to attend board meetings.

If you have something in the area related to woodturning or woodworking you would like to post to our calendar, please send an Email to webmaster@ovwg.org.
