Conservation Boards host Fireside Chat featuring flint knapping

The Webster and Hamilton County Conservation Boards will hold a Fireside Chat focusing on flint knapping tonight.

This will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Camp WaNoKi, located at 2401 WaNoKi Camp Road in Fort Dodge.

Flint knapping is the process of creating stone tools by striking and shaping flint. Participants will have the opportunity to try their hand at making projectile points, blades, or scrapers.

“This program offers a fascinating look into the craftsmanship and ingenuity of our ancestors,” said John Laird, Hamilton County naturalist.

Registration is required and can be completed online at www.mycountyparks.com under the Hamilton County page.

For more information, contact John Laird at 515-297-0423 or Karen Hansen at 515-576-4258.

Starting at $3.46/week.
