​

​I want to thank
John Njaa for his design and expertise in being the Webmaster and managing the Wood Clubs Website.  It is really an awesome design with so much information put into this site.  

John has been Webmaster for our Woodshop Club for the past 10 years.  What you see is his design and management up to this point as he has decided to step down as Webmaster and I volunteered to be his replacement.  With John's design, time and effort of this site it will be an easy task for me to monitor and add items of interest.

Hi, my name is Bob Knight a member of the Wood Club since 2019.  I have volunteered to replace John since I am familiar with the Weebly Website, as I am also the Webmaster for the Fused/Stained Glass Club and have been for over a year now.
  I have created a specific email address for you to be able to communicate with me for any suggestions, information, or pictures of projects you might like to share, etc.  My email address is:   scovwoodwebmaster@gmail.com
