BCUK BUSHMOOT SUMMER 2008 - Once again we have the
Bushcraft UK Moot, better known as the BushMoot. This will be the 8th moot and
it's going to be fantastic...as usual, especially as Mors kochanski is coming
again for the whole event, those that came to the Summer 2006 Moot will know how
great it was having him there.
The dates are the Friday the 1st to Tuesday the
5th of August. Please remember that this is not a bank holiday weekend.
Please also not that we are limiting places this year so book early to avoid disappointment. The link to payment details is above.
These
meets are for everyone, no matter how involved you are in bushcraft, bring the
family!
