Apple
Ridge Woodturners was formed November, 2002, with the assistance of the
late Willard Baxter. Our membership has grown from approximately
16 in attendance at the initial meeting to over 100 members by March,
2007.
Our goals are to:
Promote
the art of woodturning.
Create
a market for the works of our members.
Develop an appreciation for fine turned wood art vessels.
Provide instruction with demos by noted turners.
Apple
Ridge is an informal club that encourates interactions by the
sharing of ideas and methods. Our social time allows us to get to
know one another. Several of our members are instructors offering
private lessions.
Whenever possible we have sppecial 5 hour Saturday sessions with world
class turners.
You are invited to visit us to see what Apple Ridge Woodturners has to
