Old Business Faye, Jo Ann and Paul Martoccio attended the Three Rivers Carver show. Faye reported that it was a fun weekend. The person setting up the show explained that this was the first year in that location. They decided to cut down on activities since they were not sure of space. Next year the club is going to include carving contests and will allow our club to bring in our saws for demos. These plans are pending. The show will be a week later due to a conflict in Cleburne city garage sales. Information will be sent to all present. Jo Ann had sent in a check for 3 tables and 2 people. She is going to send her statement to Lavern for reimbursement. Paul Benson had entered 4 pieces in the I MADE IT FROM WOOD exhibition that was located at the same building. Very nice.
NEW BUSINESS Joy Edwards stated that she and Glenn visited JennaBeth Hutcherson. Joy stated she is doing well and living by herself. She would like for us to get all of Lyndal’s Scroll Saw Magazines. Paul Benson will meet with Glenn and Joy to pick up the magazines before our October meeting. The copies will be available for our own use. First come, first serv.
