Community Boat Building Saturdays

STARTS: 10:00 a.m.
LOCATION: Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding

The Community Boatbuilding Day is a chance for people of all ages, shipwrights and kids, Master Boat builders and first timers to come together in a supportive environment to learn, give back, give forward, and have fun with common purpose. It is also a chance for the students of the Boat School, who come from all over the country and world, to connect to our community. This is a chance to be accepted, a chance to share ideas, and to build the web of a healthy village.

When: Saturday, starting Oct. 10th every Saturday throughout the school year through June 2010.

Where: Upper Lower Hadlock, the very top terrace above the Rubb Shelter at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding (42 N Water Street Port Hadlock).

Who: Everybody, the boatschool students, board members, alumni, members of the community, high schoolers, families, woodworkers, artists, well - everybody.

2) Transforming the part of the top lot into an artistic gathering space/lunch spot/BBQ area/let's see!
3) "Weather permitting and Captain available" rowing sailing with Journeyman.

What is needed:
1) You, people are the main thing.
2) Food. We want a festive atmosphere. We want potluck snacks and lunch. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate will be on-going. We will be reaching out to local businesses for support and trying to provide a simple main dish for lunch.
Want to cook once a month?
3) Creativity and recycled materials for our "Dragonheart Teahouse". Come brainstorm and build. Paths, bottle walls, boats turned into shelters, fire pits, gardens, good space, etc.!!
