Stone-tools of the Strathbogie Ranges

Saturday June 30, 2012,

12 pm to 4 pm

At the Euroa Arboretum

• BBQ Lunch

• Stone-tool workshop – understand the characteristics of different rock-types and learn to make a stone tool.

• Local ‘collections’ – a display of stone artifacts found in the local area; bring along items you’d like to show others, or just join in the excitement of discovery. We’d like to photograph artifacts, but insist you take them home again for safe-keeping. This exercise is about sharing, recording and learning and has no bearing on who safe-keeps the artifacts,  or where, or modifying anyone’s land-use – all participation is voluntary.

• Local stories – there may be stories that have been handed down from earlier times; come along and share these, if appropriate, or listen to the oral history preserved by others.

• For more, call: Janet (5790 4268), or Bert (5790 8606).

• RSVP essential, numbers limited.

Our aim on the day is to learn, connect, share and explore.
