Club News & Reminders
 
Vocational Minute - Phil
 
Phil provided some good information when considering buying a rug.  He shared that rugs made of Viscose, Bamboo Silk, Banana Silk or Rayon are all essentially made of paper and do not hold their shaped or appearance once wet.  When shopping for a new rug/carpet, look for ones that do not contain the materials above.
