Woodturners club can help you get started. We offer beginner
training classes, mentoring programs and interesting
demonstrations at our monthly meetings. Hands on demonstrations
by world renowned woodturners are also sponsored by our club.
Many of our members got started using these programs. Their lives
have been enriched and some have gone on to become
internationally recognized advanced turners. If you are
interested come to our next meeting and check us out. , Your 1st
meeting is free and our annual membership fee is a modest $35.

Since I have not been able to complete the arrangements with Sam Bats before our meeting on Tuesday May 14 the
delivery date has been set for June 11 the day of our June meeting. I have your orders and will hopefully have the
cost, all in, by next Tuesday. It would be very helpful if you brought cash or a cheque to pay for your order in
advance this Tuesday. You should know the approximate value of your order. I will have more info. about
additional wood products that will be available at that time. Thanks for your patience.
