Earth Day at Fort Whyte Alive
Great day to be outside!!! We had 31 of our members show up at Fort Whyte today. Erle made soup and tea and bannock. Yummm. Many activities were being demonstrated – from beading to lucet cording to carpentry to musketry to our settler dollies – to chatting with the interested public. Several members were out in their new “sweat shop” created outfits. Two newbies were getting started by observing all the activity. Fort Whyte presented us with a very nice honorarium. Thanks to all for turning out. Great to get together after the long layoff since Festival du Voyageur.
Next up:
May 22 – Fort Gibraltar Bicentennial celebration. – details soon
