Just wanted to update everyone on the Hunt County Woodturners 9-day Turnathon at the Hunt Co. Fair in Greenville, Texas.
We turned 71 pens the first day (Friday) in 6 hours with 2 lathes running. Sat. we started at noon and the thunderstorm hit about 4:30. We turned 54 pens before we had to put everything away.
It looks like we will exceed our goal of 400 pens. We are getting many, many positive and grateful statements about the FP program and what we are doing. Several people told us about their sons who are in Iraq right now, and they are the ones who seem the most thankful. Several folks already knew about the program from the articles in the local paper.
