The Kalamazoo Gazette set a reporter to the iron smelting demo on Saturday and a number of media reports resulted:
- “Medieval smelting demonstration at WMU brings the heat, despite wind and rain“
- Iron Smelting Demonstration (photos)
- Gallery: Iron Smelting Demonstration
We had a great turnout of over 100 people, despite the cold front and squall that came though, dropping the temperature about 20 degrees in 10 minutes [and destroying my pop-up pavilion š ]. Ā Thanks to Darrell Markewitz at the Wareham forge (and Neill, Keeney, and Lisa!) for making it most memorable!
