I wrote it into my Big Chief tablet w/ my fat #2 pencil.   I need to work on my bow building skills.  I  don't have any tools, but I can make a flint scraper.   :)

make sure to bring some bow building stuff. I will be bringing some osage for trade, as well as one bigger log of osage ( if you can split it off, you can keep it).  Try to bring some raw materials of whatever you can so you'll have stuff to trade.
We're also going to be having a bow burning. Bring all your failed bows for firewood ( if you still have them :P ). You never know, we might be able to come up with a way to save some of them, or learn from it.

I'll be there and I'll have some Osage, elm, and persimmon staves all of which I could use guidance with.

Generally it'll probably be just me and erik there on friday night. More company would be welcome, as erik gets grumpy in the evenings  :laugh:

Would love to see a lot more people there on friday night though, we set up the fire and camp site. And maybe a little knapping and wood carving. As well as cooking over the campfire.

Was thinking about doing some flight shooting/clout shooting this time around as well. So bring your fastest bow, and let the arrows fly. Need to see if i can find a field archery target or two as well.
