The Woodshop, situated near the Ballpark, is open daily from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Subject to a volunteer Monitor being on duty). The shop
is equipped with all the machines and hand-tools necessary to construct furniture and cabinetry.
The Club maintains a good supply of lumber like oak and other hardwoods, secondary woods such as alder and poplar as well as birch plywood. These are sold to members at below-retail prices.
Dues are $70 per calendar year. Basic training and completion of a safety course (BOT) are required of new
members. Skill-improvement classes are available and a 'mentoring' program is available for members who
are new to the craft. Lathe work is popular and a Carvers Special Interest Group accommodates
those members who wish to indulge in that craft.
The Carvers meet Tuesday nights from 6 - 8 p.m.
The Club is active in community projects and has built many pieces of classroom furniture for
local school districts and donates hundreds of shop-built toys each year to local pediatric hospitals,
schools and welfare organizations. The locomotive and caboose pictured to the right were designed and
built by club members for the St. Vincent DePaul Dream Center.
The Toy Project meets Thursday nights from 6 - 8 p.m.
Interested persons are welcome to visit the Woodshop and learn more about the Club.
New Members can join the Club by filling out the Membership Application.
