This is our fall work party to refill the wood shed before winter. We usually have several hydraulic log splitters working and need folks with muscle to move logs and folks with finesse to run the splitter lever. We plan to move firewood to all the fire circles.
Activities Planned:
Wrangling Tree Rounds
Splitting Tree Rounds into Firewood
Stacking Split Firewood into the Woodshed
Fixing Lunch
Come help with other chores around camp!
Thank you for helping to support the camp!
