Central Indiana Woodworkers' primary mission is to help its members become better woodworkers both in skill and by giving back to the community in the process.

The Northeastern Wisconsin Woodworkers Guild was formed in May, 1982 to further education and fellowship for area amateur and professional woodworkers, to advance the collective interest of woodworking, to promote good will, and to gain recognition through shows.

In 1977, a small group of tool collectors formed CRAFTS, meeting informally to talk about tools. In 1980, the club was incorporated as a non-profit organization with the purpose of encouraging interest in early trades and industries and fostering the identification, study, preservation and exhibition of early tools and implements.

Amateur and professionals who are currently involved in all areas of woodworking crafts are invited to become members of the Baton Rouge Woodworkers Club. Beginning woodworkers or others who are interested in learning more about woodworking skills are also encouraged to become members.
