Woodworking Show Press Release –
2015
2015
The Rapid
City Woodworkers Association (RCWA) will be sharing their skills and showing
finished art products during their seventh annual Woodworking Show. It will be
held Saturday May 9, 2015, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Knecht Home Center at
320 West Boulevard in Rapid City. The event is free to the public, and those
interested in joining the organization are particularly welcomed.
The show will feature displays of fine woodworking projects by individual
members. The group will show collections of Old Tools, Catapults, and Wooden
Games. There will also be live
demonstrations of woodturning, scroll sawing, toy-making, and using a computer
controlled router (CNC). Visitors to the show can also register for a monthly club
newsletter and door prizes of donated wooden items hand-made by members. A
raffle will be held for select high quality wooden items. Proceeds will be used
to buy supplies for the RCWA’s Toy Making Program for less fortunate children in
the Black Hills.
Woodworking demonstrations will include several projects. These will explain how
to make wooden toys and boxes, turning bowls and pens on a lathe, and using a
scroll saw for name signs or intarsia projects. Interested children can have
their individual names cut from wood and take them home. Visitors are also
welcomed to help sand toy parts. Members of the RCWA will be available to share
advice as well as swap ideas for techniques and projects from those attending
the show.
The event will be held at 320 West Boulevard near the intersection of Omaha and
West Boulevard. Specials on tools and supplies for woodworking will be featured
throughout the Knecht Home Center as well. Additional information can be
obtained from RCWA President Bob Buchanan at 348-2865 or Rick Weisbeck at
