GREAT FOLLE AVOINE CAMPER REGISTRATION INFORMATION
Greetings Rendezvous Campers!
I am excited to invite you to the upcoming Great Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous! Below are the details and forms that you will need to register for this event. I hope that you are planning to participate in this our 27th annual gathering at Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park.
This year’s Rendezvous dates are July 15th through July 23th. You may note a few changes to the registration form. We have made minor adjustments camping rates to reflect the extended Rendezvous dates as well as the increasing cost of providing a space to camp, free firewood, and garbage disposal. We encourage you all to stay for the entire event, but have also given you the option to pay a reduced fee if you are only able to attend for part of the camp. We are also giving a $5 discount per adult camper if registered by June 1st. Early set-up is available and encouraged on Wednesday and Thursday with no additional charge.
As you know, the main purpose and goal of this event is to educate the public about the importance of the Fur Trade Era in our American and World history. You, the campers, are instrumental in achieving this goal, both indirectly, by your presence and adherence to camp rules, and directly, by providing demonstrations and workshops throughout the event to other campers and to the public.
If you are planning/willing to do demonstrations or workshops for this year’s Rendezvous, please indicate so on the Demo/Workshop Registration form. I would like to be able to provide a schedule of demonstration times and locations so this information will be crucial to aid me in creating this schedule.
I am also hoping that we can help you bring in “customers” if you would like to do a paid workshop, such as basket-weaving or other crafts that require materials. These workshops can be quite beneficial to the demonstrator and the participants if they are well thought-out and advertised ahead of time.
Please feel free to contact me with questions and ideas if you are interested in conducting a paid workshop.
Thank you for your ongoing support of the Great Folle Avoine Fur Trade Rendezvous and Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park. I look forward to meeting and learning from each and every one of you!
Your most obedient servant,
Kim Wheeler
