The promotional flyer, registration form and accommodations listings for the 5th Annual Gathering of The SeatWeavers’ Guild, Inc. at Old World Wisconsin (OWW) in Eagle, WI have been posted to the website and you are all encouraged to fill them out as soon as possible.

Old World Wisconsin is a busy tourist area and accommodations fill fast, so register, fill out your membership and get your motel or other lodgings arranged now so you don’t miss out.

This proves to be another great experience for the public as well as our members, since we are demonstrating various types of chair seat weaving, holding a cane trivet weaving class and will be reweaving a very special Lincoln rocker for the museum at OWW.

Then too, there are the regular member events; Meet ‘n Greet, Workshops, Annual Meeting and Dinner and much, much more! See the Membership page to send in your membership dues for 2012-2013 by June 31st for the 2012-2013 membership year so you can attend all the Member’s Only events.
