Members set to storm September 7th meeting.

Unless there is a late breaking development, we, the Ottawa Woodworkers, are going to storm the meeting on the 7th with a flurry of personal accounts.  What accounts?  What woodworking project did you finish this summer?  What did you start?  Did you acquire a new skill in the shop?  Was there a major or minor shop reorganization?  Is there a Shop Tour for us to enjoy?  Our own Wayne Richardson moved house recently and is looking at a blank canvas of a shop.  Rumour says he will start a series of short reports detailing the shop's development.  What's more, you can use your time to declare what you would like to see in these Zoom meetings.  It's a good bet they will go on for a bit, so come out and tell the fragments of the Executive what you think would be a useful or interesting presentation.  So, from now to the 7th of September, work on your own presentation, whether it's canned or on-the-fly.  Don't make us call names.
