In April Wing joined over 100 chainsaw carvers in Ridgway, Pennsylvania for the 24th Ridgway Rendezvous, the largest annual gathering of chainsaw carvers anywhere in the world. It was Wing’s fourth time at the ‘Vous, an opportunity to display and sell carvings, give carving demonstration to the public, meet up, and learn from other carvers. Ridgway is known to carvers far and wide, and draws to this small logging town the family of wood carvers, not just from around the country, but from around the world.
