Sheep Camp for Adults

2011 Sheep Camp For Adults
A Very Hands-On Workshop on Keeping Sheep

Saturday, May 14, 2011
8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Getting started with sheep? Jump-start the learning curve and avoid common mistakes by spending a day with four experienced shepherds—and a large, mischievous flock of sheep. Gain hands-on practice with essential skills. Meet people you can call on later for advice. 
Bring a potluck dish to share for lunch!

Program Fee $45 for first person in the family, $35 for second. 

Attendance limited to 20 to maximize hands-on practice.

Two working positions are available for half-price. One is in exchange for
taking photos, the other for helping set up/clean up snacks and lunch. Email for availability and details.
