Summer Camp - Blacksmithing: Hammers, Fire, and Fun

Here is your chance to get into the forge, heat up metal and hammer it into shapes. Projects will abound in this camp. From decorative hooks to hot dog roasters there will be plenty of chance to practice your smithing! Youth camp is a great way to learn new things and potentially spark a lifelong interest in crafting and creating. Note: The fee for this camp includes an extra $20 supply fee.
