First Annual North Columbia Knap-in - October 11^th – 13^th 2012

Patrick Farneman will host the first annual North Columbia Knap-in this year at the Kettle Falls Museum and Interpretive Center at 1188 St Pauls Mission Road, Kettle Falls, WA 9914.  The dates are Thursday, Oct 11^th thru Saturday, Oct 13^th.

Participants are welcome to come a day early and are able to stay until Sunday if they wish.  The site is a short walk from the historic Kettle Falls Tribal fishery and gathering place and borders National Park land.

We have an open door to camp on the 7 acres of open ponderosa pine forest behind the center.  We will have water available & restroom facilities, and the Staff of the center have volunteered to open the museum for us (special off-season opening) to be able to view the collections they have of local artifacts. 

We are working on obtaining some local stone to work, in addition to a planned obsidian quarry trip to the Buttes to make sure we have plenty of rock for everyone.

Added 8/30/2012 - Patrick made a trip to the Buttes and  brought home a nice assortment of rock for the knap-in.

We are hoping this is a great event for everyone!
