From the President

We had a good meeting last month. Dave Walker showed us their video showing how the people of Salem, including many of the members of the Salem Carving Club, created Salem's Riverfront Carousel. It was a very interesting story and quite remarkable how everything fell into place for them. They started from nothing and ended with over 40 finished, and I
might add beautiful, carousel horses along with the building for them and a new park for everyone to enjoy. It would be a very interesting to go see. We would like to thank Dave for coming down and sharing this with us.

Next month we are going to have I Wayan Kantor come and demonstrate his carving techniques. He was at our meeting last month and brought several of his unique carvings to show us. He is from Bali and uses Balinese and our type of carving tools to create these interesting pieces. I'm sure you will enjoy the new and different style he presents.

Hope to see you all there.
