<body><div>Members,</div><div><br /></div><div>Please open the attached 2023 demonstration schedule. I have five demos set so far.</div><div><br /></div><div>Assuming we continue to do a potluck and a non-turning meeting next December, we have six more demos to fill. I need your assistance so if you have a topic you would like to demonstrate, talk to me and reserve your date. Remember, the club reimburses members $50.00 per demo. A nice way to help finance your turning addiction, I might add. Demonstrating is not rocket science, just a bit of planning and forethought is required. And your demos are always appreciated, even with the bloopers. </div><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span>I believe the demos given by our members are the grass-roots of woodturning. The foundation of what we are as a club.</span></div><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span>Having talked up members doing demos, a nice mix includes a professional or two as well. Mark Palma will be visiting next November 11. We now have Wi Fi available so I am hoping to find another pro or two who could give a demo from their home shop, broadcast to us over the Internet and viewed on our club TV sets at the meeting. As we have done with Zoom demos during the pandemic, they provide interaction between us and the demonstrator.</span></div><div><span><br /></span></div><div>Who do you suggest? Mike Peace did a great one and he charges a reasonable price. Lyle Jameson is a great one, and he does remote demos. Cindy Drozda might be possible s well as Jimmy Clewes, if they do remote demos. The pros like Drozda, Clewes and Jameson will charge more. Not every pro wants to do remote demos, less money for them and labor intensive if they use another person to run the sound and cameras. </div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><b>Who would you like to consider? Please give me your ideas.</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div>John</div><div><br /></div><div>John</div><div><br /></div><div> </div>
