| OHCC LIVING | AUGUST 2020 | 29 Just in case: Check with your club contact to confirm meeting place, date, and time. Woodchucks Woodchucks, wake up, dust off your plans, and let the sawdust begin! We have been told that we can work in our shop with the following required guidelines: • No more than three certified members at a time in the shop • Stop at HOA, with your badge, for temperature check • Wear your badge and sign-in as usual on clipboard • Masks are required at all times • Maintain social distance • Open roll-up doors to increase inside circulation • Use sanitizer or wash hands regularly between machines • Clean the machines after usage • Wood Shop hours are 8 am to 5 pm (no exceptions) Monday – Friday • Limit your usage to two hours, if the occupancy is at the three members Please note that these are the rules that we must ALL follow in order to use the shop safely. No problem, and if this is what it takes to remain safe and to make sawdust we will happily comply! After three months it has been quite a scavenger hunt… where are the cradle bottoms, which wheels for the new truck, who has the jig, how many highchairs should we build? We will figure it out and pledge to make up for lost time. Fear not you families of Camp Pendleton! Let's all look forward to better times, a time when we can express our friendships with a smile without a mask and a handshake or hug for our pals. Stay well OHCC; we need you. As everyone knows we are dealing with a pandemic. The rules against 'gatherings,' and the wisdom of keeping distant from others, because no one knows who has the virus, have pretty well stopped the Wine Tasting Club in its tracks. The Club has officially shut down its tasting and party activities for the remainder of 2020, although necessary administrative work will still be done. One of our groups, the Cru Crew (group five) had purchased wine for a tasting in March that didn't happen due to the governor's stay-at-home order. Now the group is attempting to have the same tasting as a virtual wine tasting, contactless, using Zoom, with everyone drinking the same thing at the same time, while staying at home. Look for a report in September's OHCC Living to see how it went. But this is what we are trying to do: • The coordinator ordered a supply of reusable four-ounce glass carafes. These were purchased through Amazon, and after running them through the dishwasher, are available for the club. • The presenters for March, who didn't get to present in March, still have the dozen bottles of wine purchased (with Club reimbursement) from a northern California winery for that tasting. Six different kinds of wine make up the dozen. • Invitations are being sent to the group for those who would like to participate. • The presenters will pour wine into the carafes in two or three- ounce servings. The amount will depend on how many members sign up for the tasting. • Group members will come pick them up the day before the tasting. • Chill the whites at home. • On the evening of the tasting, one of our group members who has a paid Zoom account will start the meeting, and we can all join in, and conduct a tasting with everyone having the same thing at the same time. Paid Zoom accounts do not have a time limit. • We'll have the carafes returned to the coordinator, and maybe we'll decide to do this again. This offers the chance to get together and socialize with people, and actually do a wine tasting. We will have to work a lot harder to have the same appetizers though. Some day the Wine Tasting Club will meet in person again! But it will probably be outside. Wine Tasting Club
