[Baked potatoes on a bonfire]
Nature experience in autumn.
After the curatorial event, on the day of the substitute holiday
Elementary school students gathered and made a bonfire!
The last thing I went to was carrying firewood.
Carry the firewood used to make the fire to the BBQ House.
Some of the firewood was long and thick.
Restrooms available for cutting and splitting.
Children in the lower grades
Scenes of interest in various things, such as lighting fires and cutting wood.
When I thought that the person in charge was decided and started moving, I thought, "I want to do that too!"
It was interesting to see a child in the upper grades calmly observing the way his feet stopped.
A child who likes chopping firewood and keeps chopping it all the time.
Some of the children kept cutting trees all the time.
Even a first-grader can use a solid saw
By the end of the meeting, I was completely good at using a saw!
It's amazing how focused they are.
Restrooms available, of course, the Fun of bonfires is not limited to the experience.
Restrooms available to eat baked potatoes and bread sticks!
Sweet potato is a sweet potato that I was allowed to dig on the waterfall last month.
Because the firepower was stronger than expected, and the newspaper and aluminum foil wrapping were weak.
Restrooms available some potatoes that were charred on the outside (reflection ...)
The inside is thick and thick! It was packed with sweetness!
This is an aside, but
After coming to Nishiokoppe, bonfires, BBQ, wood stoves, etc.
I have had so many opportunities to see the fire.
How do you light, keep and extinguish a fire?
Not only in reading Documents, but also in everyday experiences
The environment in which you can get to know is interesting.

[Making things using raw wood]
freshly cut, undried wood,
Cracking, scraping, carving... The shape is ready.
Mariko Kusakari came from Hakodate again this year
A Greenwood Work course was held at the Komu Museum of Art.
I participated in a course on making mini plates!
What each one wants to make
Considering the diameter of the trunk, the first step is to choose a tree.
The participants in the mini dish making chose
There are three types: willow, birch and hoo.
When you split the wood, you can see that the center is moist and moist.
Hoo Aroma of good wood! It was like that
Aroma like fermentation smell from the cut of the willow.
While using tools such as sharpening horses, sen, knives, etc.
Cut to your favorite thickness and carved to depth.
I rounded the corners of my plate.
The work that left the corner Gari is also wonderful,
It was fun to look at the plates made by the other participants.
If you are familiar with it, it is a long and thin plate with three holes carved into it.
I was impressed with the dexterity.
I think it would be nice if I could dry it carefully and use it for a long time~.
Restrooms available for your time!

[Revived Performing Arts Festival]
A Nishiokoppe Village performance event that was Held in five years yellowtail.
A great success!!!
The reason why it was cut off
Infectious diseases, budget shrinkage, lack of performers... And so on
It seems that there were various factors.
Thanks to various cooperation, we managed to overcome them.
Held in safely.
The opening of the performance is said to be a revival of the 20-year yellowtail
It is a performance of the Uensiri Drum.
Although the performance is only 5 minutes,
It was a powerful performance that was suitable for the opening.
In addition, there are a wide range of genres from children to Adult and
Seeing acquaintances and friends happily standing on the stage
It was a time that warmed my heart.
Restrooms available were so powerful that the little ones cried!
And in the second half, there was a lot of excitement in Gari karaoke department.
You can also fall in love with the beautiful voice.
You can also put your hands together and enjoy it together.
At the end, the curtain was closed with a large chorus of "Village Festival" and good fortune.

I am grateful to everyone. Thank you very much!
