Welcome to the official April Wilkerson RU-vid channel. I’m April and I’m the creator of Wilker Do’s. I'm not professional or have any training, so I just pick the project I want to tackle and figure it out step by step. On this channel you will find a variety of content like DIY home improvement, How-To’s, construction and more.

Here in Wisconsin, the simulators see good business in the winter when the outdoor courses are closed. I would imagine that it's just the opposite in Texas, where it's too hot during the summer to play outdoors.

@AprilWilkerson 11 месяцев назад

Even during the cold season in Texas, people can play in comfortable temps. Thanks for watching.

@robbiegerard7857 11 месяцев назад

Wow, you have just taken me back 46 years in an instant, i was a paint sprayer all those years ago and along with my brother were tasked with the unenviable job of spraying the inside of the roof of the Pan Am aircraft hangar at Heathrow Airport! A job which took 3 months in total. We were given a White cherry picker truck in Pan Am blue in which we put the spray machine and paint. It was when the job was near the end and i was at the ridge of the roof and i got the message over the tannoy (speaker) that my wife had gone into labour with our first son! Which made dating the job easy.

@AprilWilkerson 11 месяцев назад

Wow! What a great story! I love you can mark with the birth of your son. Thanks for sharing that with us and for watching.

I have been subbed for a long time. In May of 2020 I bought a hew truck when they were still cheap, and had thought I’d come to your grand opening that summer, driving in from northern CA. I never was able to make it, and can’t remember if you actually went through with it. Wish you the best with this new endeavor.

@AprilWilkerson 11 месяцев назад

Sadly, it was right as the world shut down so I was never able to have my Grand Opening. You should come check out Divots. Thanks for watching.

I’m cheering you on in your new venture. I’ve been a fan since you were in a house garage making a dog food dispenser. So will you continue with woodworking projects or will they be along the wayside as you’re focusing on golf

Good business move, due to the climate people are cutting back on purchases but still spending money on leisure activities. The reason for this is it's a smaller outlay at one time, long term it's not but this is not how people think. Put a cafe in using local coffee roasters and food produces, smart move.

The old log could have been moved inside the shop where the employees can still view it. If you're not going to keep the old logo, I suggest you make miniature versions of your logos that allow you to store them inside a 3 ring binder as a record of past accomplishments. Over time, you may end up with a nice little binder gallery of all your business logos.
