The club has a long history in the Valley dating back to 1983 when they met every Thursday from October to April at the Nomad Shrine Club in Pharr. Carving club members come from as far away as New York, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan and Canada, not to mention the members from right here in the Valley. We meet on Thursday mornings, each week from October through March, to follow a common passion: woodcarving. Visitors are always welcome. Stop in and check out the carvers. Feel free to ask questions and for advice. Tools, wood, cutouts and roughouts, someone to sharpen tools, a library of books and patterns, and camaraderie are there to enjoy. Our meetings are as much social as they are carving.
