Bow Building Class

February 6 & 7 – Saturday & Sunday - Bow Building Class
8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. at County Shop

Over time, many types of building skills have been lost to modern manufacturing. A skill that is still used today, as it has been for generations, is bow building. If you have an interest in building your own bow with the help of an experienced instructor, this is your chance. Gene Winter has been building bows for many years and will be sharing his skill with workshop participants on Saturday, February 20, and Sunday, February 21 from 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. The workshop will be held at our maintenance shop, which is located behind the Conservation Department’s administrative building. These buildings are located at 1890 County Home Road (next to the Abbe Center in rural Marion). Workshop cost is $ 200 per person including one stave. Additional staves may be purchased also. Pre-registration by February 17 is required, as class size is limited. For more information or to pre-register, please contact Chuck at 892-6485.
