It is time to put the finishing touches on your carvings. Steve Caruana will be in charge of the Christmas ornament contest at our December meeting. There will be three divisions, Master, Open & Novice.
You will be allowed to enter one carving. It must be a new carving and one that may be hung on a Christmas tree (not a Sequoia).

Ornament Exchange
