Ancient Folk Member meet at Lockerbrook
In August 2003 Margaret White (former General Secretary of the Woodcraft Folk) organised a 'reminiscing' weekend at Lockerbrook. Over 20 'ancient' but modern folk members enjoyed a weekend trying to relive their youth, with great success. This opportunity was used to gather together Folk material for the new Folk archives being prepared by Genia Browning. We all thoroughly enjoyed perusing the Colbert families heirlooms, such as leather bound diaries and sketchbooks from the 1930's. In the evening we held a traditional merrymoot of singing and dancing.
A major project for the Folk in 2003 has been assembling the treasures from the past which, can now be viewed on a new dedicated Woodcraft heritage website.
