| Butchering Venison |
| Check your deer butchering skills with Bill Hesselgrave's demonstration on that topic. Bring a note pad and pen. Doing your own venison butchering is the surest way to get exactly the meat cuts you want and assure top quality. |
| Flint Knapper |
| See Mark McDaniel's Stone Age skills at work producing arrow points, knives, axes and spear points from stone. He's researched stone points and other tools and is pretty much a walking encyclopedia on Illinois Indians and their tools. If you want something identified, bring it in and show it to him. The knapping is fun to watch; the tools are interesting to use. Did you know that obsidian blades have been used in delicate brain surgery because they are sharper than steel? |
