    Default Beads of Courage

    Our woodturning club made 25-30 containers for the Beads of Courage program. My neighbor, head of Florida News Service, had a prior commitment reporting on government activity, so he enlisted our local CBS affiliate for this report:

    North Florida woodturners help children fighting health battles

    They were delivered to the AAW Symposium in Atlanta, to join about 800 more.

    Cheers,
    Joe

    What an amazing thing to do Joe. I hope those containers brighten a few little faces and help them with their struggles.
