I will be including in the October issue of AW an article about a turning program near Ft. Benning, Georgia. The program is sponsored by the Bi-Cities Woodturners, a local AAW chapter. Stan Wellborn, an editorial advisor for the journal, suggested that I also list in the journal as many other woodturning programs for veterans as possible.

If anyone knows of such a program, please either email me (editorscarpino@gmail.com) or post information about the program on this thread. Include a few words about what the program consists of, where it is located, the program's connection with the AAW (local chapter most likely), and the appropriate contact information. Thanks!
