Top Ten Challenge

We want you to work on your Top 10 UFO’s this year. This challenge is meant to get you motivated to dig out those old projects! Participation is on the honour system.

List your Top 10 UFO’s and number them 1-10. March UFO Challenge is #3

At each monthly meeting we will draw a number and your goal during that month is to make progress on that UFO to get your name into a prize draw. Don’t have 10 you say? Simply repeat your list again to continue to participate.
