Presidents Message,
Hope everyone enjoyed the well-made video on the amazing Strasbourg clock.
Masks will be required to reduce everyone’s risk on COVID-19. Please be considerate of others and wear a mask covering your nose and mouth. Thank you for your help in this.
Come for the best talk and demonstration of the 2020’s. This one will be special with great introduction and a chance to see some old tools in action that I am sure most of you have not seen before.
Danno will be taking a brief look at 18th and 19th Century horological tools and the tool making industry that made them.
There will also be a display of early tools and Mike Dempsey will be giving hands on demonstrations of how they work during the mart.
Ed Buc is stepping down from his secretary position which he has helped us for the last 10+ years. Thanks you Ed for all your work!
Karyn Critelli has volunteered to take on the secretary, position. Thanks Karyn for your help.
See 2022 dates for our meetings, no conflicts with Chicago chapter 3 so all should be able to attend.
September meeting had 21 people attend, a good start after a long pause in meeting.The chapter had received a tool donation and got donations for the tools for a total of $390. Free tables!! A free silent auction table will also be available.
You will be given credit on your dues for the missed meetings in 2020. If you already paid dues for 2020 at $25/year you will be given a $20 credit towards 2021 and 2022 as we only had 1 out the 5 scheduled meetings. The dues will be only $10 for 2021 as only 2 meetings are planned.
