Hardawaypoints:
Come on out Bryan. It doesn't matter if you have anything to add or not. This just a fun gathering. If you learn something, great! If you can teach something, that's great too. It is all about having a good time with fellow knappers & primitive skills enthusiasts.
Went out to the site yesterday and someone has stolen all the remaining firewood from the stack >:(. I intend to go do some work on-site tomorrow. I can also probably cut some wood over at Dick's, though I'm not up for splitting it yet.

Hillbilly:
Wade, we'll schedule when we get there, I guess. We have a list of people signed up for different things, so we'll just have to see who shows up and when. I'll try to get hold of a dry-erase board or something similar that we can post a schedule on-site. If I wasn't coming from 250 miles away, I'd bring down a load of firewood.
DBernier:
OK Folks I am back and the next two weeks are dedicated to the site. I am having some problems mowing the site because the tractor is giving me fits. "Should" have it cleared up on Monday or Tuesday. We have power there at the site and Jim and I will see if we can get the well pump going. We will also have a good supply of drinking water in our 5 gallon containers. I will also have some 5 gal. buckets with water for anyone needing water for their demos and we can refill them. We have the loan again of the two 10 x 20 foot shelters. We need you to bring any pop-ups you may have and especially any tables. I will try and bring a few but I fear it will not be enough.
If you want to camp primitive, do so. Any displays you can bring will be a great help if any of the public shows up. I here some scouts will be there camping.
I will post a schedule tomorrow night, early, of the people who volunteered to do demos etc. I will be on site from the 16th thru to the 21st. You can come early and camp and help if you wish. later

Well I got the tractor going and I can start mowing this afternoon. Its amazing what spending a little $ will do to solve your problems in a crysis. ;D
Below. or wherever, is a word document showing the list of volunteers and what they are doing. If you are on the list for a demo, email me for a time you wish to do it. I need to know who will be working on the raffle bow. I have a log we can split and the wedges and maul to do it and the firewood. I will bring a draw knife and hope to have my "draw vice" fixed by then.
I will have a post hole digger for those who need one. I will bring as much firewood as I can, but if you can bring some for yourself that would be a good thing.
Remember, tables, chairs and a pop-up if you have one. There is no shade along the promenade (air strip) You can park your vehicles as you did last year, close to your camps or in the parking area.
