It's official - The Lone Star Woodturners Assoc. is one of AAW's newest chapters!

[Steve Russell]

On February 4th, 2008 the AAW granted chapter status to the Lone Star Woodturners Association in The Woodlands, Texas! I was honored to be elected President of the chapter for 2008 – 2009. We have a great set of dedicated officers and directors in place to lead our club for the coming year. In the last few weeks, we have been busy getting everything in place to get the chapter up and running, like getting a club logo, setting up a newsletter, starting to build our club website, discussing locations for meetings, demonstration topics and a hundred other little things…

We will have a club "Open House" meeting on March 29th in The Woodlands, quickly followed by three days of demonstrations at The Woodworking Shows (April 4 – 6th) in the Reliant Centre. If you live in the North Houston/Woodlands Texas area, or any of the surrounding areas in Montgomery, Liberty, Walker, North Waller or San Jacinto counties and would like more information about our club, please email me at: steverussell2436@comcast.net

Our website is still being developed, but there is a short information page up with a link to our first newsletter and a membership application here:

Thanks!

Hello Don and Kurt,

Thanks for the well wishes... We have a fantastic board of directors and we're all looking forward to building another great woodturning club.

 

[Steve Worcester]

Does this mean we will see you at SWAT this year?

 

[Steve Russell]

Probably...

Hello Steve,

I should be able to make it this year as my travel schedule has slowed down a bit... The last time I made this event it was called "Texas Turn or Two" and I demonstrated the McNaughton Centre Saver. It will be nice to attend again. Take care and best wishes to you and yours!
