Thank you Al !

I have been out for the last week sorry for the late Thank You  

 

Good day folks!

We have raised approximately $1000.00 thus far! Thank you to all our guests and members alike who have contributed. 

After doing some math for the expenses to keep our community live, I'd like to put a goal out there, lets see if we can reach $1800.00 to help offset the costs of keeping our little peaceful corner of the world live and strong shall we!  

 

So $800 more to go! We only have a couple more weeks to make it happen, we've done huge things before within our community, we can do it again! Thank you all.

 

Good morning folks!

I'll start working on getting the Donation Confirmation and raffle ticket entry email out to all our donors, thank you for all your help!

Let's congratulate our 2025 Summer Fundraiser recipients of some very cool items contributed to our cause by our wonderful sponsors Easy Wood Tools and Woodcraft!

Please see original post above for the winners, see the names in purple next to each item. 

If you are a recipient, please message me and send me your shipping address and I'll notify our sponsors. Please allow up to 2 to 3 weeks for shipping. 

 

Thank you everybody for making this fundraiser a success! You all have helped our little corner of the world in our woodworking community to pay the bills and keep the lights on. I wish everyone could walk away with something!
