Turning of the Year Competition
We have been not given this as much press as it should have been. So let me remind you that at the AGM, we hold the ‘Turning of the Year Competition’, where we would love to see your work made between Jan 18 AGM and Jan 19 AGM.
Over the years, we have seen a fantastic display of the work made by you, our members, which it never ceases to amaze me what a talented bunch we have. We then give our invited judge(s) the very difficult task of choosing the winners. All our competition rules are on the Competitions page, but here are the specific rules you need to know:
- Held at the January’s AGM.
- Open to paid up members only.
- Up to three entries per person.
- One class.
- Entries must have been made in that year – i.e. made between AGMs.
- Judging by guest judge(s).
- 1st Place receives 1st Mark Barker Trophy and £30 in Club Shop Vouchers.
- 2nd Place receives £20 in Club Shop Vouchers.
- 3rd Place receives £10 in Club Shop Vouchers
You have to be in it to win it, so dust off those turnings and bring them along and good luck.
I’ll be there!
I’d like to wish all our Club members a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and healthy New Year. See you in January.
