- What time? Meeting room opens at 8:00AM and the meeting is from 9:00AM to 12:30PM. Meetings are held in the back room past the showroom floor.
- What do the meetings entail? All meetings contain door prizes, quick shop tips, show and tell, methods of work presentation (subject varies), and ends with a guest a speaker. All meetings are a great opportunity to network with other members who share the same passion!
- What does the club offer? Generally, it's what you make of it. The club offers an annual Spring seminar covering a specific topic (power tool maintenance and set-up, stick chair building, etc.). There are often members who are selling tools or lumber, giving away books and magazines. The biggest benefit the club offers is the vast array of knowledge amongst members and the willingness to share it with one another. It's something that cannot be measured up to in a YouTube video.
- Are there volunteer opportunities? Absolutely! Various members build wooden toys for the Children's Hopsital, furniture for the New Life Furniture Bank, and several other charitable outlets.
