Greetings from the hometown of Orville and Wilbur Wright! The 2011 Spring MOMCC Conference is officially kicking off at 7pm tonight at Carriage Hill Metropark, but the pre-conference workshops were held all day today.
Particpants had the opportunity to tour the Air Force Museum and Huffman Prairie, take a local foods tour, use an outdoor bakeoven, learn basic meat preservation and smoking, use alternate power on the warm, learn basic woodworking, or learn basic pattern drafting.
I did not sign up for a workshop this time around, but I did role into town in time to tour the farm and check out some of the afternoon workshops (photos to come). It was a great drive from Michigan in beautiful spring weather!
The conference (outside the workshops and evening reception) is at the Holiday Inn Fairborn in Dayton. It looks like a great facility.
Better go grab some dinner before I head back over to Carriage Hill. More later!
