[crw-talk] Home School Woodturning field trip

[John & Donna Griffiths]

Members,

The woodturning field trip held Saturday, November 10 was an unqualified 
success.  We had 10 members participate: Adrian Novak, Marv Meyer, Clyde 
Cassell, Jack Fitzpatrick, Bob Raasch, Bob Patros, John Phillips, Joe 
Lehn, Duane Hill and myself. Thanks to every one of you who helped!  
Every child got at least one turn at a lathe and made a variety of 
projects ranging from wonderful Slimline pens to tops and varied items 
in between.  Many beautiful and useful items went home with their proud 
maker.

Many thanks again to A Line for hosting us.  Even if you were not to 
attend, next time you are in A Line please thank them for hosting.  
Duane's lathes and sharpening equipment made it a turning event and not 
just a dry lecture.  Thanks to Joe and Mary Lehn for coordinating this 
on the home school side and to Joe for the photographs he took of the 
event.  Some of the photos will appear in the club newsletter.

We had about eight parents and 20 kids attending.

See you next weekend if you are not out hunting the elusive whitetail,

John
