About the Lake Charles Woodworkers Club

Mission and Purpose

     The Lake Charles Woodworkers Club, Inc. was formed in 1989 by several area woodworkers for the purpose of education and information exchange among woodworkers in the Lake Area. Besides monthly meetings, we hold an annual BBQ and "Show and Tell" meetings where members can show and discuss their current projects with other members. In addition to general woodworking topics, we occasionally have presentations from outside traditional woodwork areas. The Club is a non-profit Louisiana corporation.
     Our membership includes amateur woodworkers as well as professional craftsman in the fields of wood turning, cabinet making, carving, scroll work, box making, marquetry, Intarsia and more at all levels of skills and interest. We discuss woodworking techniques and tips, tools, have periodic tool use demonstrations and show current projects. Our membership also has Special Interest Group meetings in the areas of turning, scrollwork and cabinet making, generally on the second Saturday of each month.
     Special discounts are available to all members from area tool and material suppliers.
     We hold monthly meetings, generally on the second Saturday of each month at a member's shop or a local craftsman's commercial shop and occasionally elsewhere (depending on the subject of the meeting).

Annual Dues
Annual Dues are $20.00 per year for a family membership that pays for the monthly newsletter, meeting and mailing expenses. Any surplus is used to help off-set the expenses for the Annual Toy program, the annual BBQ, charitable donations and door prizes.
