CHAPTER NEWS
The next PTG Las Vegas Chapter meeting will be:
Date: September 6th (Saturday)
Time: 5:00 PM
Place My shop
1419 N. Boulder Hwy
# C
Henderson, NV
The shop is located on Boulder Highway between Sunset and Warm Springs and just up from the corner of Barrett Street in a 2 story office building. I’ll apologize in advance if the shop seems untidy as I’m in the process of moving out.
The new chapter newsletter that I had planned to switch to a better looking format has been put on the shelf for a while. It was an impressive looking web page but it lacked the ease of access for myself and the secretary to make changes and updates without outside expertise.
Congratulations to Alan Meyer RPT for stepping up and filling the Chapter Secretary position!!! Alan will help with some chapter events organization as well as some administrative duties. Three cheers for Alan for giving our chapter some greatly needed leadership. We are all looking forward to his great personality in the Chapter ranks. THANKS ALAN!!!!
Following refreshments at 5:00 PM, the meeting will come to order 6th when we will discuss any chapter issues and have a open discussion with any and all members present on topics of chapter interest and concern. I would also like to hear of anyone’s special comments on the past National Convention in Anaheim. There will be two presentations of technical interest. Leonard Hebert, our Chapter V.P., will give a demonstration on tool edge sharpening. Lenny says to bring a tool such as a knife, chisel or other honed edge tool to experiment on his sharpening equipment. Also, I will be giving a demonstration on Lyre repair. Specifically a Yamaha style Lyre where the bottom posts become loose from the pedal box which usually occurs from being rolled by movers many times.
The newsletter is now available on the world wide web. Send me an email to chadwick61@cox.net and your in! All address are confidential. http://www.webspawner.com/users/ptglvchapter/index.html
This will save on stationary, postage and printer ink. Thanks for your help!!!
