Connecting through Technology
In August the National Chimney Sweep Guild held a board meeting and invited members to join in virtually via Google Hangouts on Air
American chimney sweeps use Facebook to share education events, photos of their masonry work, keep in touch with chimney sweeps from across the world and much more
National Chimney Sweep Guild Members use Yahoo Groups to connect on current industry issues and assist each other with technical questions
