WATCH MAKING A SKILL FOR THE FUTURE Precision is another important factor. Exact timing must be used in preparing a watch. The mouth gets into the action sometimes. THE WATCH- MAKERS GUILD The Wayne Community College Watchmakers Guild was or- ganized in 1969. Guild members consist of students enrolled in the WCC Watchmaking course. All members are honorary members of the NC. Watchmakers Association during their student status. The Guild's objectives are: to further education in watchmaking and related subjects; to develop leadership; to improve citizenship and patriotism; to develop a high degree of professionalism in members,- to promote good will between members, the student body, the faculty of WCC, watchmakers in the community, and the communtity and to sponsor seminars for special training in this field. Guild meetings are held once a month to discuss plans and pro- jects related to Guild activities. The Guild sponsored two highly successful-shows in this area last year; in addition, the Guild also has the honor of having won the NC. Watchmakeers Association Presidentis trophy. The trophy is awarded annually to one of the eight Watchmaking Guilds in N.C. for most outstanding activities X accomplishments toward the watchmaking profession.
