    Default 2015 Northwest Camp ShopBot in Keslo, WA

    We'd like to announce 2015's Northwest Camp ShopBot is on Saturday, July 11! Yes, we are coming back to your area!

    Our host is Cory Torppa who is the CAD/Construction teacher at Kelso High School in Kelso, WA, just off i-5. (A map with parking information and further details will be emailed out 1 week prior to Camp for those registered.)

    Register here- NORTHWEST CAMP SHOPBOT

    Camp ShopBots are a great way to meet other ShopBot users, to learn new techniques, and share tips on pushing your machine (and yourself!) to new levels. Camps feature topic-based presentations, a Show and Tell session that anyone can participate in, and good conversation.

    Schedule: Saturday, July 11, 2015
    8:30-9am: Meet & Greet with light refreshments
    9am-noon: Morning presentations
    Noon-1pm: Lunch
    1pm-4pm: Afternoon presentations
    Camps usually end between 4-5pm.

    Camps are FREE to attend and lunch is included. They are intended for all ages and skill levels. Teachers and their students are highly encouraged to attend!

    *AND REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR PROJECTS FOR THE SHOW AND TELL SESSION! Whether it is a ShopBot-made jig, test piece, prototype for a new product about to launch or sculpture piece, you are encouraged to bring a ShopBot-made project. It is always interesting to see in-person all the techniques for which a ShopBot can be used.

    QUICK UPDATE: We are working with our host and the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction's Skilled and Technical Sciences Program Supervisor to have this Camp count towards teacher learning credits- Inservice Education for teachers.

    Stay tuned for further information!

    Just finished our International Train Meet and am anxious to get back to playing in the shop. This Camp will be just the stimulus I need to get er' going again. Looking forward to seeing the 'gang' once again. I'll try and remember to bring some show and tell of the model railroad variety this time! Russ

    Love to have the excuse to make a trip back to the NW but am already heading there in August for another reason.
    I am worried about all you guys trying to find Keslo though. Lived in the area many years and never heard of it.
    Now Kelso; that's another matter. Nice little town.

    Haven't you heard Kelso is in Oregon now. During the senior high school graduation recently, someone noticed that the folders holding the diplomas, had the state of Oregon seal on it.
    Woops.

    Have the fires spread down to the Kelso area yet?
