Tom Pike - Featured Carver - The annual Rochester Woodcarvers show allows us to recognize a club
member for outstanding service to the club and community by naming them
the "featured carver." For 2009, Tom Pike was named the featured carver
and greeted our visitors as they entered the show. Congratulations Tom
and thanks for all you do for the club!
Raffle carvings - The 2009 Rochester Woodcarvers show was supported by very generous
carvers offering their work to the club and those visitors and carvers
buying raffle tickets. The raffle generates the revenue we need to
offer free admission to the show - so no one will feel they cannot
attend. Thanks to everyone who helped make this year's show a success!
People's choice carvings - The Rochester Woodcarvers annual show includes a special opportunity
for our visitors and club members to vote for their favorite carving
from those entered into the People's Choice competition. There is no
prize, ribbon, award, or cash for the winners - they just have the
satisfaction of knowing that they have the most votes! The 2009 show
concluded with Norm Busta in first place for his lifelike walleye, Jim
Walts in second with his eagle, and Cheryl Jones finished third with
her playful polar bear. Thanks to everyone who voted for their favorite
carving - we'll see you next year!
Additional photos by Wayne Hendrickson - Wayne Hendrickson is a long time club member, past president, and "help
get it done" kind of guy. He also loves taking pictures and lends his
services to the club capturing show "candids" of exhibitors and
visitors. Wayne, thank you for helping preserve memories of this past
show!
