Monthly Meetings

Main Monthly Meeting

The Dublin Chapter holds its main monthly meeting on the first Saturday of each month beginning at 10:00AM and finishing about 1:00PM. The meeting usually consists of :

• demonstration of woodturning
• monthly woodturning competition
• a cup of tea/coffee
• opportunity to borrow books/videos/DVDs from the Book and video club
• the chance to meet old friends and other woodturners

There is a fee of €5 collected to cover the cost of the venue, tea/coffee etc.

It is a requirement under our insurance policy that only paid-up members may attend meetings. However, you may become an Associate member for the day if you are introducted by a member. This allows you to attend one meeting so that you can assess if you would like to join.

Venue for the main Monthly Meeting

From January 2010, until further notice, all Dublin Chapter monthly meetings will be held at the Willington Scout Hall, Templeogue Wood.

To get to the Scout hall you should turn off the N81 at the Spawell Golf Centre (Wellington Lane). Pass the golf centre until you reach the roundabout. Turn right at the roundabout (Orwell Road) and go straight past the shopping centre (on your right).

The Scout Hall is on your right at the next roundabout.

Please park responsibly and do not block local traffic or entrances. Parking in the hall grounds is limited and is reserved for delivering/collecting equipment etc.
