Mentoring

The KC Woodturners Mentoring program is on hold for the moment. If you are interested in classes or mentoring please contact one the club Board members, or “pres@kcwoodturners.org”. The Mentoring program was not used enough so the Board is trying to make it more useful to members.

We meet on the 2nd Monday of each month @7:00 at:

MEETINGS and COVID-19:
The City of KCMO mask mandate for meetings is no longer in effect. You may still wear a mask if you like. We will also continue to Zoom the meeting to those members that don't feel comfortable at an in-person meeting or just can't attend the meeting in person. The Zoom details will be emailed to members the week before the meeting.

February 10th Regular Meeting: KC Woodturner member Bill Paullo will discuss stabilizing wood.
February 10th Challenge:
Members take a photograph of one of their woodturnings and email it to Sue Bergstrand before the next regular meeting for discussion.

Renewed Members for 2025. Your new 2025 KCWT Membership Cards are available in the metal cardfile box in the Clubhouse Lobby window as soon as you renew. Pick yours up anytime the clubhouse is open (see the Guild schedule).

New 2025 members name badges and membership cards will be stored on the KC Woodturners badge rack inside the front door to the right.

Current KCWT membership cards give members 10% discount on non-electrical items at Woodcraft, Metro Hardwoods, Schutte Lumber, Rockler, Penn State, and Klingspor. This 10% discount is an enormous member benefit. Many members use this benefit to pay for their dues many times over.
