Transcription
I remember one of the First Capital Days, I had taken down table loom that I have and it's easy enough for children to do, so I'd set up a set up the loom for something really small. And they can get a lot of school groups down, and watching the children play around with a weaving loom, there was nothing on it that they could damage, the looms are pretty sturdy. And that was a great deal of fun just watching them actually weaving and realizing that yeah, they could do something. So I think that's one of the big memories that I have.
