It was about 4 seconds. But it felt great!

Hello members,
Yesterday our club demonstrated at the Hixon House Folk Fest in La Crosse.  Thanks go to Duane for helping move the lathes, he has a low-to-the-ground trailer that works well for the task.  Dan Check, James Bloomer, Kris Clough and Aaron Gesicki turned and discussed how it is done to the visitors to our area.  Kris did the organizing and worked with the Historical Society to make it happen.  Julie Bloomer spoke with many visitors about her wonderful resin pens and how she casts the blanks. Dan and Myself talked with folks about the creation of the wooden pieces. I invited interested people to attend a meeting, so if we are lucky we will have some visitors at our inaugural meeting at Luther in August. A few items were sold and 25% of the take will go to the club.
Lastly but far from the least, Aaron gave a long interview to a Channel 8 reporter which was scheduled for broadcast at the six and ten PM newscasts last night. Sadly, I promptly ate and took a nap after I got home so I missed it. So Aaron, maybe that was your 15 minutes of fame, edited down to a minute or two on the broadcast perhaps.
So CRW was well represented yesterday.  Thanks to all who made it happen.
John.
