Welcome

To the homepage of Coulee Region Woodturners, the local AAW chapter serving southwest Wisconsin, northeast Iowa, and southeastern Minnesota (see map). Our chapter was newly formed in the spring of 2001, and we are 81+ members strong as of September 2023. Our meetings are held at 9 am on the third Saturday of each month, mostly at the Luther High School in Onalaska, WI. You don't have to be a member to attend, but we encourage anyone with an interest in woodturning, no matter what your experience, to join. Membership includes the monthly newsletter "One Good Turn", published by our newsletter editor Aaron Gesicki--you can download issues here in PDF format.
