"Unus bonum vertere dignus alium" "One good turn deserves another" 

DelVal Turner's Regular Meeting
Tuesday November 10th.
 

We would like to welcome you to our November 10th meeting at the Moorestown Friends School at 7 PM.

Please consider our invitation for sharing knowledge, strengthening skills, and friendship with like-minded hobbyists.

We will hold our Officer elections, please let us know if you are interested in serving in any position.

We will be sharing the results of our summer challenge. For those who want to join in on the fun, it was to turn an object and apply some type of embellishment. This is a great opportunity to share ideas and techniques.

This month we will be collecting your turned pen(s) for support of our challenge to “Turn a Pen for a Service Member”. They will be turned in at the Woodcraft store in Wilmington, Delaware for distribution.

There will be a “Show and Tell “of your current work.

We will also be holding a 50-50 to raise funds for the club.

Looking ahead;

In December, we will be holding our Annual Holiday Get Together on December 8^th. This is a time of fellowship over a wonderful dinner.

In January, we will host Carol Hall for a live demonstration. You can see some of her work here: https://www.thecarolhall.com/ 

In February we will conduct a Mini-symposium covering several areas. If you are willing to present, please let us know next week. In addition, we will have our sign-ups for HOW classes. Anyone interested in presenting a HOW class, please let us know next week as begin to develop our schedule.

We hope to see you Tuesday, November 10th.
