    Fire Starters

    I just made some using toilet paper tubes stuffed with dryer lint and paraffin. Once the paraffin hardened, I sliced them into 1/4" thick discs with a band saw. The cut edges of the discs are rough enough that they light with the briefest contact of the match or lighter flame.

I don't know the exact count, but I believe there were just over 20 students, a similar number of instructors and a hand full of significant others, holding down the fort. The weather was quite cooperative, with...

    Article about FreeStyle..what why..the benefits

    I could quibble with a few points but in general, Glenn's assessment is accurate (in my opinion). We've offered a "Wind and Waves" class in the past but it was poorly attended. The Midwest Canoe Symposium is offering a "Canoeing Essentials Clinic", a "Kids Class", a "Forward Stroke Clinic" and...
