19/08/2011 Fabulous talent in the Taranaki Woodworkers Guild The Taranaki woodworkers Guild carries out competitions to improve the club members ability to design and produce items of interest. Last month they had a design and build a round bowl out of timber that was small and could hold various items. They went one step further and said that they would fill the bowls with lollies and donate them to Hospice Taranaki for patients and their families. They are a wonderful collection, we really appreciate the individual and the group effort put into this project. Thank you.
