Summertime is unquestionably the slow season at the Wood Shop. The shop remains open throughout the summer, but may be closed occasionally as demand slackens and monitors are not available.

This month’s featured woodworker is Don Jorgensen. Don has been around woodworking much of his life and has been turning wood over 25 years. A master craftsman, he says that the SCOV Wood Shop has everything a woodworker needs and is quick to add that club members’ care of the shop and its equipment is exceptional.

A new member orientation is held at the Wood Shop the first Wednesday of each month at 4 PM. Call Bill Norton at 480-980-5493 for further instructions. Visit the website or call an officer with questions or for more information. Club dues are $30/year.

The Astronomy Club’s next meeting is Wednesday, October 19, 7 - 9 PM, Catalina Vista. Our future meetings will be the third Wednesday of the month. With membership exceeding 100 individual and family members, it is wonderful to have such good attendance for our knowledgeable guest speakers. Next year’s speakers list is developing and will be posted once finalized.

Please be prepared at the first fall meeting to finalize an officers’ slate. The club Bylaws require the entire current slate to be replaced. Please consider supporting the club’s future by volunteering for one of the open positions. Contact Allan Mashburn if you wish to volunteer.
