April 2024 Meeting
| Date | Apr 13, 2024 |
| Title | 2X4 Lamp Projects |
| Presenter | John Snyder |
Our next meeting will be at Trinity View Retirement Center at 2533 Hendersonville Road in Arden, NC. Each meeting begins at 9:30am and usually last until 12:00pm.
Our speaker this month will be our very own member John Snyder. John will be taking us through his journey and inspiration for his 2X4 lamps. John is an engineer at heart and has spent the last 8-10 years honing his development to his latest prototype. John will share tips and tricks, theory, and how keeping and open mind has led to the latest project.
After the presentation, we take a short break for fellowship and refreshments. Following the break, we will present "Show and Tell" that members have brought to share their experience and talent. Bring pictures on a USB memory stick so they can be shared.
WNCWA will also have a presence at the 2024 Asheville's Maker Faire at A-B Tech. This event is on the same day as our monthly meeting from 10am to 3pm. This event is open to the public and is a good opportunity to learn about WNCWA and our interests.
We look forward to seeing everyone there. Please do not park in the parking spaces directly in front of the building as these are for the residents. When you arrive, enter at the Main Entrance, check in at the Reception Desk and ask for the Meeting Room. Refreshments will be served.
We look forward to a great turnout!
