So ive been thinking of fun things I could teach at this event and here is my current list I have going. Obviously I couldn't do all of them and still really enjoy the event myself but I think I could easily do three things on this list.

-Mingo could do another plant walk but gather and prep foods as a group this time since it will be spring
-Water filter construction
-Bow Drill fire set construction
-Burnt in bowls
-Super shelter construction
-Improvised Bucksaws
-Improvised Slingshots and shooting contest
-Finding and Making natural char cloth
-Making cordage the two strand twist

Captain Airyca, do you think you could maybe add a poll to this thread and ill just do the top three?

Stay plugged in, shit happens and sometimes it doesn't. We'd love to have you there. I say 3 days and two nights officially. I mean it should be a 3 day and two night event like last time but folks can come late, leave early, whatever.

well I'd love to be there. I'm trying to find a job so I can stay in the area but that would probably require a serious pay cut. maybe I can make up the difference shaving things into my chest hair to win prizes and then selling them.
 
I'm going out with OREGON FAL'ER tonight to hash out some slightly final details. Do you want me to post a new "official" thread or just edit this one?
