Provo Pioneer Crafting Fair

<a href="/images/uploads/2011/06/IMG_6523.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3762" title="IMG_6523" src="/images/uploads/2011/06/IMG_6523-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a>Looking for a chance to get the family out into our delayed summer? Provo has a great event this weekend at their pioneer village (<a title="Provo Pioneer Village" href="http://goo.gl/maps/35YC" target="_blank">map</a>).  It's a great chance to get demonstrations on some old skills such as spinning, blacksmithing and more.  Bring the family even if only just to get a feel for the local history, but even better, hang around and talk shop with people experienced in their crafts. This is probably one of the better local opportunities to get together with people that can teach these crafts.

Shelf Reliance Developer Job

Our friends over at Shelf Reliance have been expanding, and they need another person to help work on their websites.  Of course, a company like theirs would be interested in the type of person that follows a prepper blog like this, so they asked me to pass this along.  If the skills fit, please contact them.

Instructables Paracord Contest

One of our favorite DIY sites, <a href="http://www.instructables.com">Instructables.com</a> is hosting a Paracord Contest. The grand prize is a Leatherman with a custom laser etched message of your choice. Paracord is one of the best gotta-have-some-with-you preparedness items. The inner strands can be used for fishing line while the outer shell on its own provides a strong shell for wrapping or weaving other objects. Really, the possibilities are endless.
