Our next meeting will be September 3, 2026
at Grace Northridge Church
2659 Eisenhauer, San Antonio, TX 78209
We will begin at 6:30 PM.
THERE WILL BE NO AUGUST MEETING BECAUSE OF SWAT.
However if you are going to SWAT, we will continue the tradition of going to dinner Thursday (August 27) at Rudy’s BBQ at 6:30 PM. Good food and good fellowship.
Rudy’s is located at: 2510 Circle Rd, Waco, TX 76706, near Interstate 35
Also, no Saturday After in August.
To anyone bringing boxes, take them directly to the Instant Gallery. They will be on display there, by guild, until Saturday evening. Afterwards, your box will be placed on the banquet tables and then raffled off.
So far, we have 128 boxes to donate and with yours, we again will have one of the best showings as a club.
If you are not attending, it is worth the drive to Waco for the Vendor-Floor, which is FREE. (deals deals deals)
Also, you can help with our "Learn to turn a Pen" booth that we run on Friday or Saturday.

Classes planned are Calligraphy, watercolor, alcohol ink planters, the is a book club meeting and a birdhouse gourd to paint and a hand sanitizer keychain to make. We want all spouses to check out our table next to the registration table. We will show some samples of classes being taught and the schedule for the classes. Spouses do not need to register for SWAT as long as they don't plan on sitting in any of the demonstrations. They can purchase lunch tickets and the Sunday luncheon from the registration room.
Please forward this email to your club members so they are informed. If you are no longer the president of your club, please forward this to the club president.
Thanks in advance for your help in getting the word out of these classes.
If you won last month’s, Bring Back Drawing, you are expected to bring back something for this month’s drawing.
Our mission is to promote wood turning from the novice to the advanced turner.
