4.5Clarke Outdoors(18 reviews) - Great roof rack and service Wednesday: River Rafting & Tubing • Lessons & Workshops • Gear Rentals • Stand Up Paddleboarding • Kayaking & Canoeing
Purchased a Yakima roof rack at Clarke Outdoors. Excellent service and a very good price. The employees took the time to accurately measure, adjust, and mount the rack perfectly on my car; very well done. I expect to get years of service from the rack, and I would recommend Clarke Outdoors if you need a roof rack.See more..
We had a great time learning how to make a glass paperweight and checking out the really awesome converted church that houses Peter Greenwoods Glass Blowing Studio. Peter makes gorgeous glass objects and I especially loved the Caribbean blue glow in the dark glass sculptures. I've never seen anything like them. Peter is a great teacher and made the whole experience enjoyable. You really gets hands on in working with the glass. My sister enjoyed our trip so much she signed up to go back a session where she will make 4 different glass objects. Riverton is pretty quiet but it's definitely worth the trip to see the studio and make a glass keepsake.See more..

I have taken 4 classes at CVSW. Bob Van Dyke is a walking repository for woodworking information. And, owing to his professional skill and the quality of his school, he attracts some of the most talented and well-known teachers in the woodworking community. All of the classes take place in the schools dedicated space. You are not sharing the space with a woodworking club or trying to hear an instructor over the sound of machines being used for projects not related to your class. The equipment in the school is top quality and expertly maintained. The chisels are sharp, the table saws are aligned to the miter slots, etc. etc. Most importantly, all of the classes are well planned. Each day has a set of objectives, and the instructors do a good job of keeping you on track. I have seen several classes in which a few slower, less experienced students, were more than able to keep up with the class without dragging down the pace for the more experienced.See more..
