If you would like to join us for camp, please print the form and send it in. Space is limited. If you would like more information, post your question. Thanks!

Fall 2008 Fiber Camp
YMCA Camp Miller Retreat and Conference Center
October 23rd - October 26th 2008


Make new friends who love fiber as much as you do!
Knitting, crocheting, spinning, dyeing and anything fiber related happens here! Everyone can be part of the action. Large common room with gas fireplace overlooks Sturgeon Lake. Work on a camp project for charity or your own project(s) that you just haven’t had time for at home. Campers share ideas and techniques while spending your time your way.

Camp Miller is located in a pristine White Pine forest along the shoreline of beautiful Sturgeon Lake, 45 miles south of Duluth and less than two hours north of the Twin Cities, Minnesota. Besides the state of the art dining hall/conference center, we have a sauna and three winterized lodges with indoor bathrooms and showers. McLeod Leadership Lodge has bunkhouse style sleeping arrangements. Two large rooms with six bunks in each.


Activities:

Your welcome packet will contain information about camp and directions for our first activity.

Thursday and Friday Evenings
Our pre-camp Knit-Along Houdini Socks will continue. With support from all campers, we will cut into our socks for the addition of the “forgotten legs” of our socks.

Saturday

Beginning Drop Spindle Spinning. Lita Doeskin will begin her class after brunch. Please bring your own drop spindle, or visit our blog for instructions how to build your own from recycled CDs. Roving will be supplied.

Coffee Class.
Amy Grittman will follow the drop spindle class with an informative session on the wonders of coffee, including taste tests and treats.

Evening Show and Tell
