Cluaran Heritage Project
We have been experimenting with boat building and watercraft for a good few years now. Perhaps it is time to attempt the “Nith Descent” challenge?
The challenge is following the river Nith from Auldgirth to Dumfries rowing club. It is a grade 1 or 2 run depending on the water level.
Anyone interested?
This is a pre-enactment project. Trad skills meeting modern materials, and scavenging …
There will be two sessions a week.
Thursday evening 19.00 to 21.00
and
Monday afternoons from 14.00 to 17.00
As usual this is a club not a led workshop. Please bring your own materials and projects, or try something new with the donated materials and tools we have accumulated.
That said, some evenings will have a theme where regulars are willing to share their skills rather than simply use the time for their own projects.
We ask for £5 a time to cover overheads, or you can contribute in kind.
