The next meeting is on the fourth Thursday March the 23th, 7:00 P.M. The meeting will be upstairs in the seminar room at the Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World Hwy 66 Kodak Tn.
The next chapter meeting is Thursday August 24th at 7:00PM at the Monte Vista Baptist Church in Maryville. Our two speakers this month are both fly fishermen and love the sport as well as working with wood. One will bring his drift boat and the other his strip canoe. Andrew Sonner deals with storm water for the City of Alcoa for his day job. He will have a presentation showing the process he used to build his drift boat. Chase Vandervelde teaches at Maryville High during the day and became interested in building canoes at MHS where canoes are built in a class. With the help of a good friend he built his first canoe at home and is in the process of getting ready to build some more that will be for sale. This should be a very interesting meeting - be sure to be there.
