The Party is Over...
On our FaceBook page, I have started adding photo albums of my own works as well as those of other local wood carvers/sculptors. I'd like to add photos of everyone's work so be sure to contact me if you want to be represented there.
Once again, how about joining the modern world and adding a membership page to this blog so people can join the club online? I can do all the work and it's probably the easiest way to attract new and younger members. All I need is permission and cooperation from the club officers.

Chili, Horses, & Wood Carvings.
11 March 2012 is the Rattlesnake Ridge Riders 26th Chili Feed and Ride at Horn Rapids Park.
In 2011 I donated an eagle carving to secure a vendor spot for selling my chainsaw carvings. I was joined by Bob Gough, Juan Marin, and Niel Wesche who, in exchange for helping me set up and sell, displayed and sold tickets for the club's raffle bench. In fact, the winning ticket was sold at the Chili Feed!
I have again reserved a vendor spot which I am willing to share with any wood carver who helps me set up.

It's a one day event and the chili feed is cheap :)

NEW CALENDAR!
As you can see, on the tabs above, an events calendar has been added to this blog. To view the new calendar, simply click the 'Calendar' link above. If the on-blog version seems a bit small, there is a link to a full-page version at the bottom of that page. I hope to make this a useful resource by adding wood carving events from all of Washington and our neighboring States.
Submit any missing events to me either by a comment here or through the FaceBook page.
Another new feature, which you may have noticed, is the "favicon" {favorite icon}. I used an image of the traditional wood carvers mallet to create a favicon for the blog. This icon should appear on the tab at the top of your browser and possibly in your Favorites or Bookmark list.
