[crw-talk] Wig Stands

[raaschb at charter.net]

Hi All,

I have been negligent in keeping you posted on progress, so here it goes.
Last week I delivered the 3 wig stands I collected from the last CRW meeting
to the Gundersen Cancer Center. These were very well received. The need
continues as they continue to be given out to patients.  Thank you again to
Bob Patros, Wendell Ziegler and Rich Egan for your generosity of your time
and talents.


I just read an article on the AAW website, News & AAW messages page, a piece
showcasing what the Cumberland Woodturners in Crossville, Tn is doing. A
particular statement in the article stood out for me "Another nation-wide
project is creating wig stands that attractively and safely store wigs that
many cancer patients choose to wear when treatment causes hair loss. As with
all other things they create, the woodturners put their best efforts into
turning beautiful boxes and stands".  If interested the article title is
"Crossville Chronicle: Woodturners Club donates Christmas ornament proceeds
to House of Hope, by Tom Neckvatal".


 


I will pick up any additional completed wig stands at the next meeting on
March 19.


Thank you, Bob Raasch
