Whit Holder was recently elected to a three year term on the Board of Directors of the Timber Framers Guild. According to its website, the Timber Framers Guild is "a non-profit educational membership association dedicated to the craft of timber framing. We serve as a center of timber frame information and design for the professional and the general public." (from www.tfguild.org)

A member since 2003, Whit says, "I am primarily a self-taught carpenter, but the professional training I have received through the Guild has broadened the scope of what and how I build and for that I am grateful."

Whit is excited to serve as a director of the Timber Framers Guild and is looking forward to beginning his term on January 1, 2008.
"There's plenty of work to do to insure that our Guild remains strong and healthy and grows in the right directions," Whit said.
