Decoy Carving Clinic – Huntsville, TX

April 26 @ 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
Kpimvwog - Blast & Cast

“Give praise to the Lord, proclaim His name; make known among the nations what He has done, and proclaim that His name is exalted.” Isaiah 12:4

Purpose:

To build meaningful relationships with other outdoorsmen for the purpose of leading them to, or back to, Jesus Christ.

Activity:

Carve and paint your own custom duck decoy under the tutelage of veteran-carver Rob James.  Participation in the decoy carving clinic includes carving kit, tools, and lunch included, and all participants will leave with a decoy ready for the water or the mantle.  Rob has 40 years of experience carving decoys and will walk each participant through the decoy-carving process start to finish.  Participants can select either mallard or bufflehead in the ticketing process.  If you would like to paint a hen (or have a special request), please contact Rob directly at the number provided below so that we have the correct supplies on hand.

Date:

Saturday, April 26th.  The deadline to register as a participant is April 12th.

Cost: 

$70 per carving kit (includes lunch).  Youth participants are welcome at our decoy carving clinic.  An adult and youth carving together only need to register for one kit.  Participants must register by April 12th to secure a carving kit.  Observers and volunteers are also welcome and need only register for the lunch ($15).

Tools:

Painting supplies provided.  Please bring your own goggles and dust mask.  Other basic wood-working tools like rasps, box planes, and Dremel-type tools would be helpful if you have them.  We will have tools on-hand to share, but you’ll experience less down time if you have some basic tools to bring.

Location:

Huntsville, TX – address will be provided to participants prior to the event.  (Due to an ongoing construction project, this year’s clinic will not be held at Covenant Fellowship Church.  Instead, we will be at a private shop in the nearby area.)
