The Red Mill Museum Village is hosting our annual Blacksmith Hammer-In,
in partnership with the New Jersey Blacksmith Association from 10:00 am-
4:00 pm on Saturday August 24. Tailgating, tool swaps and demonstrations
will be ongoing throughout the day and there will be opportunity to win prizes
at an "iron in the hat" raffle drawing. Have an odd item you'd like a blacksmith
to identify? Bring it in!
New this year: our blacksmiths will be offering one-on-one lessons from
9:00 am-12:00 pm. Participants must be age 12 or older to take a lesson, and
will complete a coat hook project to take home. Lessons are $25 for half an hour
and must be reserved in advance. Contact Assistant Director Marie Salthouse at
programs@theredmill.org or 908.735.4101, ext 100 to register.
Visitors can help us raise money for the #SavetheWheel campaign
by purchasing a metal dog tag that one of our blacksmiths will personalize just
for you! Burgers, hotdogs and fixing will be available to NJBA members. Not a
member? Registration to join NJBA will be available that day. Regular museum
admission, free for Museum members. Check out the programs page on
our website: www.TheRedMill.org/events for more information.

In 1997 the New Jersey State Senate and General Assembly passed a series of
laws that the governor approved. These laws establishing a venison donation
program process, along with the Food Bank Good Samaritan act, helped pave
the way for the Hunters Helping the Hungry Program. The United Bow Hunters
of New Jersey (UBNJ) provided much needed support for the above measures.
A year later a few hunters organized Hunters Helping the Hungry, Inc. HHH
is a non-profit 501-(c)3 organization with the help of the State Federation of
Sportsmen Clubs, and support from the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife.
HHH raises funds and coordinates efforts by butchers, hunters and
food banks throughout NJ. We're always looking for ideas, partnerships and
volunteers to help in many ways. Funds from HHH only pay for venison donated
by hunters. HHH does not pay for any municipal depredation hunts or farmer
depredation hunts. Many farmers and corporations do support HHH through
generous donations or allowing hunters to hunt their property or requiring
hunters who hunt their property to donate deer through this program. To find
out how you can help, visit: www.HuntersHelpingTheHungry.org.
