Hosts - Steven Dazey (WDWF) and Jim Keffer (PSK)
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is hosting a National Hunting and Fishing Day
celebration on September 22nd near Moxee, WA.(approximately 18 miles east of Yakima). Steve Dazey, on behalf of the WDFW, has cordially invited the
Puget Sound Knappers to attend!
Their goal is to have around 500 youth attend and not only introduce youth and newcomers to
target shooting, hunting and fishing, but other primitive and traditional skills such as flintknapping and blacksmithing.
And since the purpose of the Puget Sound Knapper is to promote the ancient art of flintknapping this will be a ideal opportunity
to do so. Besides, we also have quite a few people who can also demonstrate blacksmithing/bladesmithing and other primitive/traditional
skills.
In a word - a great place for demonstrating flintknapping!
