Seeking Tools for Good Sam Academy (GSAM)

We are seeking donations of tools for the new Good Sam Academy of Miniatures (GSAM). See list below. All such donations are tax deductible.

The Academy will hold its first six workshops in our Morgan Hill facility beginning Monday, October 14, 2013. If you would like to make a donation of tools or be put on the Academy's mailing list, email Chairman Barbara Jones, northbaj@att.net
