Awareness Showcase Day

In August we held a multi club Awareness Day at Clymont Hall to show off some of the things that the JFW does as an organization. It was a great opportunity for folks to come out and talk to the various clubs and ask questions. Each group also brought activities for us all to enjoy.


Bowl burning.
You put a hot coal on a stump and with a reed blow and blow and (sigh) blow some more until the coal has burnt a "bowl" into the stump..
Making rope.





Hinton Photos

Take a look at a slideshow of some greatest hits of our camps at Cache Percotte, Hinton.
