Leopold Bench Workshop

Lake Meyer Park and Campground, Winneshiek County

Sunday, March 6, 2016

Winneshiek County Conservation will be hosting a workshop to build Leopold Benches on Sunday, March 6 at 2:00 pm at the maintenance shop at Lake Meyer Park.

These simple but elegant benches, designed by famous conservationist and author Aldo Leopold, are perfect for circling around a campfire, nestling in a shady spot in your yard, or even settling in a quiet corner of your home.

All materials and tools for building an untreated pine bench will be provided.

Registration is required by March 2 as space will be limited. Please call (563) 534-7145 to register.

A $30 material fee per bench will be due at the time of the workshop.

All participants under the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult. The workshop will involve the use of power tools. Participants must have a way to transport their finished benches home.

Lake Meyer Park is located off of Highway 24 between Calmar and Fort Atkinson. Contact Winneshiek County Conservation at (563) 534-7145 for more information.
