This was such a fun and educational outing. Thank you to the amazing people who work there and who gave us such an awesome tour. They even opened up on a Saturday just for us. We learned about everything from the sheep the wool comes from (Navajo-Churro), to how the process it, to making the yarn including the dye and weaving. A few club members even got to try their hand at making the yarn. They all did pretty well! It was such an exciting trip! Approximately 20 Corvair folks went on the tour lead by Anne-Mae Gold of CNM. Thank you Tierra Wools and to everyone who helped to make it possible.

After the car show, some folks went north on a driving tour to Cumbres Pass, Colorado to see the scenery and hopefully get some great shots of the Cumbres & Toltec Historic train on it's way back to Chama from Antonito, Colorado.
The Awards Banquet
A great big thanks to all who made the trip to Chama and a great big thanks to all the volunteers, local businesses and everyone who worked to make this Tri-State one of the best we've ever had.
We had a lot of fun helping to put this event together. Once again, nothing happens without folks working to make it happen. And it wouldn't have been a party if no one showed up. So thanks to all who made the trip. And thanks to the volunteers who did their part so that it was seamless and everything went as it should.
