FALL & WINTER 2019/20 4-H IT'S HAMMER TIME By: Geoff Rohleder, Cremona 4-H Club - Metalwork Project Leader The 4-H multi club in Cremona offers a unique opportunity where members of the metalwork project can work with tools that most people only ever get to see on TV. The metalwork project involves many different aspects of metalworking, from welding and blacksmithing to grinding and plasma cutting. Members are introduced to these skills through demonstrations and practice, and then are given the opportunity to apply those skills to their own individual projects. Some of the past projects included knives, coat racks, and various other creations that the members envision. Parents often comment that they wish they could have had the same opportunity when they were younger as most of the skills the members learn are extremely useful in the agricultural industry. The project could not be a success without the generosity and support from the community members who volunteer their time to teach these skills to the next generation. The 4-H members are extremely fortunate to have access to Mystic Forge, one of the largest blacksmith forges in Western Canada. The kids are thrilled that they can get the chance to work with specialized tools and it is truly fascinating to watch the visions the kids have in their heads transform into actual works of art. • 14
