LOTS TO DO, BUT NO GENERAL MEETINGS UNTIL SEPTEMBER.
Field Trip to Dick Carlson’s Studio, Tuesday, June 9, 6:30 PM
Our first event is a field trip to Dick Carlson’s Studio at Fawn Lake. Dick is a wood artist who does some amazing work turning wood. We will meet at the Craig Road Park & Ride at 6:15 to carpool because there is limited parking. If you need to drive your own car, directions to Dick’s are as follows: Take Craig Road to Cole Road and turn left. Follow Cole to the Fawn Lake Gate. To enter the development, stop at the gate and find the key pad, at the bottom is a “key” button, press it twice, and then enter 3870, then the gate will open, pass through and turn right . Stay on this road until you come to #640. You are there.
