I'm a member of the CONEJO VALLEY WOODWORKERS ASSOCIATION in Thousand Oaks California. It is a general woodworking club. We also have special interest groups in turning, scroll saw, hand tools and routing. We meet once a month and have a membership of about 130.

I belong to the local woodwork group. They are a great lot of Men & Women.  We just opened our own shed ( last Sunday) where we can meet, use tools that we can't afford to buy for ourselves, & have workshops to learn new woodworking skills.
There are a number of scrollsawers. One of our ladies does beautiful Intarsia. I have put my name down to do a workshop with her to learn some Intarsia basics.

i joined the local woodworkers guild last fall but most of the guys are into turning and if   you try to show them something new they turn their noses up at it.  i dont know if ill go back in the fall or not.  im more into scrolling and they dont seem to think this is a challenge to them.  oh well their lose as far as im concerened.  i learn more on  this and a couple of other forums.
keep up the good work everybody

thanks

I joined the St Petersburg Woodworkers Guild in January.  Great group of people with a lot of varied interests.  From beginners to pro's.  There are a lot of scrollers as well as other types there and plenty to learn.

Thats about it Kendall, I joined as a turner [ and still am] but they do look down thier nose at other wood crafts unless they are exceptional.
I am taking some of scolling along to our next meeting see what happens, will post a note on it
