2012 SCABA Conference

Join us in Perry, Oklahoma for the 16th Annual Saltfork Craftsmen Artist-Blacksmith Association Conference. Send in your reservations for the conference early and make your motel reservations NOW since happenings in other towns nearby impact motel/hotel availability. You do NOT want to miss out on this exciting conference, the demonstrations, classes, raffle, auction, good food, fellowship and tailgating!

Again this year there will be a tool box full of smithing tools to be raffled off on Saturday prior to the auction. Contact Diana Davis, or any officer or director for information or tickets. Check the recent SCABA Newsletters for more information.
