Post on behalf of Deborah Gardner, WCHA Board Member
Greetings. I am making a video about Tom MacKenzie for airing at the 2022 WCHA Assembly as part of a program honoring his work as a builder and teacher, and his role as a founder and leader of the WCHA. The video is based on a lengthy video interview with Tom in 2013 and audio interviews with a number of WCHA members in 2018.
I am looking for more pictures of the following topics: Tom MacKenzie at WCHA Assembly (any year); Karen MacKenzie at Assembly (any year); Tom's boats in use or on display; Tom building or his workshop; Tom teaching freestyle skills; and any scenes at the first Assembly at Clayton NY (1980) and the second Assembly in Dorset, Canada (1981).
Please send any photographs or video you have with the highest resolution possible to: gardnerdeborah639@gmail.com.
Any questions, please get in touch. Many thanks and I look forward to seeing you at the 2022 Assembly at Paul Smith's College.
Cordially, Deborah Gardner., WCHA Board Member.
