Donations

At this time, there is no charge for current FLWT members to participate in any of the IRDs held several times a year.    Also, our other regular meetings are available to members via Zoom.
We welcome other woodturners to join Finger Lakes Woodturners to take advantage of our great lineup of demonstrations. Our annual dues are only $25. Many clubs and professional demonstrators are asking $10 per person, per session for IRDs.
We would be grateful if anyone wants to make a donation to help the club defray the costs for the professional demonstrators we have scheduled.
