How can CBD help woodworkers? Come to our next meeting....

Sin City Woodworkers

Follow the trail of sawdust to our next meeting...

Sin City Woodworkers, a Vegas valley social and networking group committed to serious (and not so serious!) woodworking discussions, meet on the third Wednesday of each month to share everything from techniques and ideas to information about local suppliers and much more. Our next meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, May 15, at 7:00, when Efrain Madrigal will discuss how using CBD products can benefit woodworkers and help ease the variety of health issues we experience, including arthritis, sore backs and muscles, breathing issues and more.
We’ll start off with Efrain giving us a brief overview of what CBD is, how it works in the body and how to use it to treat physical and psychological conditions. He’ll discuss some methods available to medicate with CBD, and we’ll follow up his presentation with a Q & A session. If you’ve wondered how CBD products can help you, bring some questions that you have. Finally,  Efrain will recommend some products that he knows to be of high quality, and give some guidance for making wise purchases for your health needs. 
Efrain has worked for a cannabis dispensary for almost two years, consulting with both medical and recreational consumers. He has seen how cannabis and specifically CBD can help improve the lives of many people by treating simple aches and pains to more serious chronic diseases.  But there is a lot of misinformation out there, and if you don’t know what to look for, it’s easy to buy the wrong products, or use ineffective dosages. 
We’ll also be collecting dues this month - mostly because I forgot to collect them last month! Springtime is our annual dues-collection season, where $20 gets you some amazing opportunities! Remember -  dues are always completely voluntary - but help our group fund some of our woodworking projects throughout the year.  The best part is - all monies left over at the end of the year are given back to dues-paying members during our annual holiday party held in December.  There are two ways to get your name into the drawings - by being a dues-paying member, or by being the guest speaker/demonstrator at one of our monthly meetings.  (Last year, we gave back close to $700 in prizes for both the woodworking competition as well as the raffle drawings!) So please - consider joining our ranks by becoming a member! 

This meeting will be held at Studio: Wood It Is!, 2267 West Gowan, unit 106 in North Las Vegas. As always, the public is welcome to attend the meeting, so members - please feel free to bring a guest along. But remember that there are a limited number of chairs in the woodshop. Attendees might want to bring a folding chair if they wish to sit during the meeting. If you have questions or need directions, call the studio at 631-1870.
