If you can avoid the weekend crowd would be best. Friday may be bad. Last year a aviation school dumped (unannounced) at least a hundred of their students on us. It was terrible. They have at least contacted us this year and it may be friday that they will be there. We haven't decided how we will handle it this year.
If you don't care about the airshow, we are slow during that. That starts at 2:00. We cycle students through in 20-30 minutes. They learn how to shrink and stretch and some do reverses and try the bead roller and other tools that Mittler Bros. loans us for the week. They leave with a bowl and dirty hands. And a smile! Some stay longer and some return every year. Some bring airplane parts to work on. There is more going on than just the bowls.
And George Biang will be set up teaching aluminum welding (oxy-acetylene).
Stick around all day if you want. Just be sure to introduce yourself when you come. Carey
