November 8-9 - Meeting, Longhouse

Our next meeting will be Friday the 8th - we are planning to meet and camp Friday night.  We are also planning to make breakfast Saturday morning for any of the Indian Guides who camp with us and to help out with Longhouse by running a branding iron station and making a Dutch oven dessert.

I made some prototype branding irons with various size rod / wire and found that a coat hanger works - that should let the Dads/kids make their own custom irons easily.  To get a good brand, I found it helped to have a block to press the iron into the branded surface - wood worked, but metal would be better.


More details soon.

If you are planning to eat the YMCA meals Saturday and Sunday, please register for Longhouse :
Fall Longhouse Registration

You can save a few bucks by skipping that, but we need a headcount - please shoot me an e-mail if you are planning to attend.

Happy trails -

Scott
