Good Afternoon, this will be a decent length  email, apologies.
 
Once again thanks for the attendance at the physical meeting. It was good to see you all. 
As I had mentioned we have been able to revive the demo with Luther High School that had been put on hold due to Covid. Quick recap we did a general demonstration of turning skills for all of the woodworking students at Luther and were going to do a hands on pen turning class with the more advanced students at a later date.
I emailed the instructor and was asked for some dates to work with for having another general skills demo followed by the hands on. In addition I will see if we can also involve the Art department to illustrate the creative aspect of our craft. 
 
Here are the dates I am looking at for demo dates. We had at least 6 demonstrators last time, would like that or a couple more if possible. 
 
General demo
17-18 Nov 
23-24 Nov
 
Hands on 
Dec 8-9
Dec 15-16
 
Timeline (both general and hands on)
1130 Arrive and offload equipment
12-1 Set up
1-3 Safety brief/intro/Demo
 
The club has the 3 MIDI lathes to bring. The Jet on a stand, the sit down Jet and the smaller counter top Jet. If you as a demonstrator have a lathe you can bring that would be great. Or, if you can donate a lathe for a demonstrator to use that would also be excellent. We would arrange to meet for transport to and from.
What the demonstrator turns is up to them. We have about 1.5 hours so something you could completely finish or have ready to apply the finish stage. Last Demo I did a small lidded box, we had branch mushrooms, small birdhouse, pens, etc. Please bring the blanks and tools you need. 
Also any artistic pieces that can be donated to display for the students, show them the different ways this medium can be worked and embellished. 

 
Please respond back with any dates that work if you can demo, or any other assets you could loan for use during the Demo. 
 
In Service
