color:black'>Tonight we had the very first monthly meeting of the brand new
Staten Island Woodcarvers club. It has been a pet project of mine to get
one started for awhile now and I have to say it was a great success.
We had 13 members attend. We discussed the goals of our club, first and
foremost to be for friendship, to promote woodcarving and for education and
networking purposes. We then voted on our official club name. We
made plans to have an announcement placed in our local paper. It is to be
free, non political, no work, no commitments and open to all carvers, burners,
scroll saw and lathe artists, marquetry, stone carvers and fine furniture
builders. We went around and did introductions and then had a show and
tell. I am very happy that all went well and I couldn't be happier with
our location. It was held in a local church parish house. The building
was beautiful, almost 150 years old and kept in pristine condition. It is
situated on 144 acres of parkland which includes one of the oldest cemeteries
in the country. It is the family cemetery of the wealthy Vanderbilt
family so of course it was also quite beautiful. We will be meeting on
the 1st wed of every month.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
