About the event
Our SW March meeting will be on Saturday, March 23, at 10 AM, and we will be back to Crowley Museum and Nature Center just east of Sarasota.Â
Over the course of more than a decade, Paul Wiedorn introduced hundreds of new students to the art of blacksmithing at Chesapeake Forge in Maryland. At the March meeting he will show us how to forge a bodkin arrowhead as an excuse to talk about the finer points of tending a coal fire and about ways to reduce repetitive stress.Â
Please bring safety eye wear and dress appropriately.Â
Please bring something for Iron in the Hat, and a food or drink item to share.
