Blacksmiths Converge in Kinzers Blacksmith Days to feature many smiths working on ONE project at the same time at Rough and Tumble in Kinzers on June 11 and 12 This year we'll cooperatively put together a Candle Holder featuring Barrick Candles (made in Lancaster City by Rick Faulkner), with different teams working on separate components of the piece. The candle holder will be started on Friday and completed on Saturuday afternoon. Raffle tickets will be sold for the candle holder, and the winner can choose to accept the one made during Blacksmith Days or the sample that will be on display during the event. The other candle holder will be raffled off throughout the season, with the winning ticket being drawn on the last day of the Thresherman's Reunion in August. On Friday, blacksmiths will be available to show how a hook, leaf or nail is made, and can offer a hand-on experience. Food will be available throughout the afternoon, and other buildings/displays will be open on the grounds such as the steam engine building. On Saturday from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m., the public will find blacksmiths working on the table. Children can participate in games. Food will be available on the grounds. There is also an IRON IN THE HAT raffle, and most of the other buildings/activities will be happening on the grounds. Admission is FREE for the public, the only Rough and Tumble event that has free admission.
