Riley/MN:
It looks like a busy February coming up for the MN/WI TMA'ers!

Can't get my attachments to attach, so...

Please contact me if you would like me to email a flier, or if you would like to help. We will be looking for manpower and donations to help make these events a success.

Forts Folle Avoine Primitive Biathlon
Saturday, February 17, 2018 • 10am to 2pm
Sponsored by Burnett County Historical Society and the Traditional Muzzleloading Association

Join us for our first Primitive Biathlon at Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park. This event combines marksmanship with endurance as participants snowshoe through a course that includes three rounds of traditional black powder rifle or musket shooting at the gun range.
The Primitive Biathlon is open to people of all skill levels and experience. The event will be held regardless of weather. If there is insufficient snow for snowshoes, participants may wear boots. The entry fee is $15, and there will be several prizes for the winners as well as door prizes for participants.
This event is free to onlookers who will be able to cheer on their favorite participants as they snowshoe around the course. Also that day, join us for our annual Indoor Rendezvous Trade Fair and Winter Encampment (Sat. Feb 17, 10am to 4pm and Sunday Feb. 18, 10am to 3pm) at the Visitor Center. Lunch will be available for purchase.

Riley/MN:
Time is closin in fellas! Anyone need more info on the biathlons?

Ohio Joe:
Riley, good luck and have lots of fun this coming Saturday! If it's possible to get some video (pictures for sure) both would be great. I think this is a very good program the TMA is involved with and I hope it continues to build a lot of interest!  :hairy

Riley/MN:
Thanks! I did get some pictures from the Folle Avoine biathlon, as did Jim Swanson. They are available on our FB group page, but I will try to get some over here at some point. We had 18 "biathletes" at Folle Avoine. It was a great first year! I hope that one keeps going, too!
