The response to piggybacking Ironmasters on this month's MAAC meeting in Virginia Beach (as was done a few years ago at the Rehoboth meeting), VA has been underwhealming. So The Ironmasters Session has been cancelled. Two of the papers will be presented in other sessions (Browning's on Falling Creek and Veit's on NJ Blooming). For those of you who did express an interest, I'm sorry. Maybe it will fly another time. For Virginians, especially those from the Richmond area, Falling Creek IW will be holding an open house the afternoon of March 24th. This will include site tours (where you can see the exposed timbers), artifacts (including mossers), a smithing demonstration, and re- enactors.
