Merry Christmas from the South Puget Sound Woodturners!

I just got a call from our facility management at WSU and the DF Allmendinger Center is out of power and they will not be able to restore power in time for us today. I am not sure if we can reschedule for another day. I wanted to make sure to get the word out immediately.
Happy Holidays to you all!
