    Ornaments for the Children's Hospital

    The Knoxville club made over 200 ornaments for the Fantasy of Trees this year. Some were simple and some were quite fancy. Instead of pricing the entire tree as in past years, this year the ornaments were displayed on a tree and offered for individual sale.

    I just found out that someone who wanted to buy the tree last year was first in line this year and bought the entire tree. Given a price of $3400, they instead gave us $4000 for the Children's Hospital in Knoxville.

    Thanks to all the woodturners here and in the many other clubs who turn to help the children.

    Outstanding!
