Join Lorén Spears, Tomaquag
Museum Executive Director,
for basket weaving ...
and WPWA's Kassi Archambault
for a gentle paddle up Frying
Pan Pond!
Leaving land in the morning, we will enjoy the breeze
coming off the river and the cool water. This wide section of the Wood
River is great for beginners and absolutely beautiful. So far this
season, osprey and painted turtles have been a common sight! Kassi
is a certified Kayak Safety Instructor. When asked, she can offer tips to
improve paddling techniques. Lorén will point out traditional basket
weaving materials present along the riverbanks. Late morning July heat
will bring us into the WPWA Welcome Center for weaving. With plenty of
space, materials and great guided instruction from Lorén, each teen and
adult will complete weaving aspen splints into a small basket.
