Linda Suter has posted an update to Hands on Classes. Check for availablilty and reservation information.

There is a growing demand for club members to want to Email to all the other members. In order to aid with this, Jon Hornbach has started a Yahoo Group called OVWG. A Yahoo group is a utility that allows you to post an Email to the group and all members of the group will receive it. To Join the group, you must sign up with a free Yahoo account, but you can use a different Email account to send the OVWG messages to. Please sign up and we'll see if we can get it off the ground! Thanks! Sign up here.

TurnFest!

It‘s time for our annual Turnfest and Swap Meet! We will meet on Saturday, September 20th at Symmes Park in Loveland, starting at 9:00 am. We will be at the Leming Shelter (the large one to the left). Our own experienced woodturners will demonstrate many techniques. The planned demonstrations (subject to change) include: Spheres, Platters, Pen Turning, Seam Rippers, Bowls and Sanding & Buffing.

For the Swap Meet, bring any used tools, wood, bowl blanks, and other items that you may want to exchange with others.

The Scholarship Committee is organizing a wood and equipment raffle. If you have anything you would like to donate to the cause, please contact John Albachten.

In addition, don‘t forget to bring your summer projects for the Show and Tell table.

Turnfest will start with a club meeting, and then the turning demonstrations will begin.
A free lunch of brats, metts, dogs, picnic salads, chips, pop, and coffee will be provided. Come enjoy the day with us, and bring a friend. If you can come early to help set up, we would greatly appreciate it.
