Coming Club Events
 
In an executive session on January 22, 2008, the Executive Committee set these tentative dates for the Club's 2008 events.  Firm dates and times, as well as event details, will be published here and in Splinters as they evolve.  

May 3 -- Spring Seminar

June 7 -- Picnic -- The picnic will be held at Falls Mill again this year.  Contact Vince Zaccardi [ vinzac@bellsouth.net ] or  (931) 455-4148 for details.  There will be a pot luck dinner and an auction to benefit the Club's treasury.  Bring something you made if possible or something related to woodworking if not, but bring something for the auction.  

June 14 -- Turning Bee at Tom Cowan's Shop -- Turning Bee coming up on June 14:  The turning bee is an informal get together by some turners and some wannabee turners.  The objective is to make some free instruction and hands-on experience available to members and guests who wouldn't otherwise be able to get it.  There will be several lathes and experienced turners in Tom's shop to provide an experience for everyone.  The focus will be on turning greenwood bowls, but there will be some spindle turning going on as well.  Bring your brownbag lunch and join the fun.  The session will be held at Tom Cowan's shop at 4085 Williams Cove Road, Winchester, TN 37398.  To get to Tom's shop:  Starting at the intersection of the new US-64 and US-41A, go east on 41A toward Cowan, TN for 0.1 miles (you'll see the Winchester airport on your left). Now turn RIGHT onto Williams Cove Road and go 3.8 miles (stay on Williams Cove Road all the way).  Tom's home and shop are on the left.

September 15 -- 20 Coffee County Fair

November 7 and 8 -- TVW mini-Exhibit at Foothills Crafts' 

December 5 -- The Club's annual Christmas party and pot-luck dinner will be held on Friday December 5 at the Church of the Nazerene at 501 Cumberland St.  Decherd.   Cumberland St. is across highway 41A from the Co-op in Decherd and the church is 6/10ths of a mile from the intersection of Cumberland/Bible Crossing/ and Highway 41A.  Click here for a map of the area.  

The festivities will begin at 5:30 PM and we'll eat at 6:00.  Don't forget, each person is to bring a gift for the drawing.  The gift can be anything, but woodworkers like woodworking stuff and really like something made by another woodworker, so try to bring something you made.  Non-woodworking attendees can bring something their spouse made or . . .  just something.

Mary Cowan is the chair person.  

2009 Exhibition -- The Executive Committee is sponsoring an Exhibition for members to show items they have made to the public.  The Exhibition is scheduled for May 3 through May 10, 2009 to give members time to design, develop, and build their items for the show and to give time to develop public awareness.   Stay tuned here and in Splinters for the details as they evolve.  The anme of the exhibition is "In the Spirit of Fine Woodworking".
