You will have no problem navigating this auction. If the auctioneer is hard to understand or follow ot definitly not because hes to fast.  >:D
Any and about all items are accepted flr the auction. Common donations are bows, arrows, moonshine, jellies, jams, blankets, knappednpoints, staves, handmade items, baked goods, (talking to you paul  8) ) , coolers have been a big success as well, but they tend to get pricey quick.

The "baked good" referenced may not keep well till the auction Dave. ( The heat and humidity  :( )

Best to keep an eye on the auctioneer, then! And a poker face!  Might be able to get a redwood box together by then!  Maybe a loaf  of home made sourdough bread?  Or a 6 pack  of MOJAM ale?  Will be looking to get advice on staves, layout, tillering,  Flintknapping, arrow making, etc!

Hawk,  no worries about the auction, im sure you won't have any trouble keeping up.  Just watch your gatoraid bottle at the auction.  Some how mine last year ended up full of apple pie.  Though not complaining about the pie, but I was pretty thirsty when I downed about half the bottle with one shot.

Thanks buddy!
Yeah,  last year I was a little bit of a lush.  Had a lot going on,  hopefully this year I'll just have a few for fun. 
If I remember right you bought the pie on the auction!

Paul,
May have to post the "pie certificate" to be picked up at the cooler!  Will send a pm re: travel plans.

Patrick,
Sounds almost like an extra "jug" of something maybe in order!  Will probablbly bottle the MOJAm ale
Tuesday.  It'll be conditioned 2 weeks, just hope it doesn't jump out of the bottle!

Hawk,  an extra jug of something is always a good thing. 

Just under 2 weeks for me guys! Got some stuff to finish up,  just hope I get it all done.
Getting antsy, I'm already on mojam time!

Right there with you brother!  Its getting harder to concentrate on work the closer it gets.  Projects keep getting added at work too.  I was going to take off next week to get ready for MoJam, but now will be working right up till MoJam starts.  I am looking forward to relaxing and visiting with everybody. 

I am working on a few extra jugs of refreshments to bring too.  Hopefully we will have enough!

The tent passed its pre trip inspection today. The boy and I got it set up in record time. We have gotten a little spoiled camping in the trailer. I’m used to having everything we need already packed so we are making lists of lists to make.

As somebody who's never actually seen a semi-professionally made bow before, you could say that I'm rather excited to get down to MoJam. (Still trying to deal with getting this hickory bow done in this heat and humidity, but hopefully I'll get it done in these next couple of weeks.) Is there anything in particular I need to bring? Obviously the bow, tools, and camping gear should come along but I'm debating whether or not to bring a couple of Osage logs I cut back in the winter with me. Also, is there anything I need to do beforehand as far as registration is concerned?

Thanks,

Shane

soggydog- bring the osage if you want to work on it...there will be plenty of help there.  No registration needed...just sign the guest book when you can and put a stick pin in the map showing where home is... :)
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...
