The main goal of the EOWA is to promote and increase interest in and appreciation of woodcarving. The club participates in community activities and shares expertise with groups such as the Boy Scouts. The Annual Show and Sale is the highlight activity for the club. The July event features carvers from the five-state region and national vendors. The show highlights a whittling contest, and competition of the exhibitors for coveted ribbons and purchase awards. In September or October, members enjoy the end of summer club picnic with carving contests, horseshoes, all-you-can-eat-pot-luck and other activities.

The Evergreen Woodworker's Guild formed in 1999 to provide a fourm for woodworkers in the South Puget Sound to exchange ideas, grow together as a community, learn from others and share what they know and learn. Monthly meetings feature "ask the experts," a show-and-tell segment, monthly speakers, demonstrations and a raffle.
