Hi all,

    Now that it's May, I am looking forward to going to MAKER June
    11-15. MAKER is especially fun for me, because I did not have the
    opportunity to go to camp when I was a kid.  The YMCA camp in Loma
    Mar, CA gets taken over by a bunch of jewelers and metalsmiths for 5
    days.  We eat, talk, and breathe metal, with occasional pauses to eat
    in the dining hall, and sleep in the camp bunkhouses (or a nearby
    motel, for those who prefer).  It is a wonderful mix of people from
    all over the country, at all levels of skills, that love metal.  The
    rec hall, kitchen, porch, and deck become transformed into
    metalsmithing studios. Under a shady tree, the blacksmithing studio
    blossoms.  

    2005 presenters include:

         Robert Coogan - Copper Weather Vanes
         Cynthia Eid - Forming with the Hydraulic Press
         McNeill & Markarian - Blacksmithing
         Richard Mawdsley - Jewelry Construction with Tubing
         Donald Stuart - Wax carving, Model Making, Casting
         Linda Threadgill - Etching
         Susan Wood - Fiber Techniques for Metal

    Symposium June 11 - Open to the general public.
    7 Workshops June 12 - 15 - Minimum age 18.

    Held at 

    YMCA Camp Loma Mar, 
    9900 Pescadero Rd,
    Loma Mar, CA 

    About 35 miles south of San Francisco. In order for the camp to plan
    food, cooks, and maintenance, sign-ups are due by May 13.
