May 2024 Meeting

Date May 11, 2024
Title My Favorite Shop Tool
Presenter Membership Involvement

Our next meeting will be at Trinity View Retirement Center at 2533 Hendersonville Road in Arden, NC. Each meeting begins at 9:30am and usually lasts until 12:00pm.

This months meeting will be a members involvement program.  Each members is asked to bring and give a short presentation about their favorite shop tool and why they enjoy it .  These tools can be a hand tool, power tool, or members can show the favorite on a USB drive for convenience.  Through this program, each of us can learn about different tools and some of there uses. 

As announced before, our June 8th meeting is a Members Only Picnic for the entire family.  Sign-up sheets will be available at the May meeting and on the website for participation with covered dishes and attendance.  Look for more details to come in the near future.

After this month's presentation, we will take a short break for fellowship and refreshments.  Following the break, we will present "Show and Tell" that members have brought to share.  Pictures of projects can be presented on USB drives to share.

 


We look forward to seeing everyone there. Please do not park in the parking spaces directly in front of the building as these are for the residents. When you arrive, enter at the Main Entrance, check in at the Reception Desk and ask for the Meeting Room.  Refreshments will be served.

We look forward to a great turnout!
