Thanks to the following who were able to make it out and show what the NWWC is all about: Matt, Wayne, Farley, Johnny, Brian, James, John, Mike and Kevin. Mike was heavily involved speaking at the seminars that went on all day. James had his trailer there educating people all day on the different varieties of wood. The event which is in its third year was organized by NWWC member Kevin. On a special note....CONGRATULATIONS goes out to John J. who took first prize in his category!!!

Nice job John!
James D. was there displaying his various woods available.
