Hopefully everyone has made it through all the snow and ice in good health! The next meeting of the carving club will be Saturday, March 21st, 9-12, at the First Electric building in Jacksonville. Roger Stegall will be providing the carving project. He's teaching a little witch figure, carved from a 1x1 about 3 inches long, and I believe it can be mostly done with only a knife! And be sure to bring things for show & tell; it doesn't take much to impress us (we're happy if you just bring yourself)! Here are some directions, just in case you forgot!
First Electric Building
1000 South JP Wright Loop Road, Jacksonville, AR
If you are coming from Little Rock, take 67/167 north toward
Jacksonville. Take the first Jacksonville exit, Redmond Road (exit 8)
and stay to the right. You will cross some railroad tracks and then go
through a traffic light. (The road turns into West Trickey Lane and the
AR-294/Military Road) . You'll pass a park on the right and after a
couple of miles, you'll come to South JP Wright Loop Road on the left.
There is a gas station (BP?) on the corner where you turn. The First
Electric building is about a half mile on the right. Just park in front
and go through the main entrance. We meet in the conference room right
behind the reception area.
I may not be there, since my grandson will arrive on the 17th! But here is the snowman I worked on at the last meeting! I'm real happy to be through carving on him!
