Stove Camp 2007


From July 16th to 20th, 25 folks joined the Aprovecho staff in Creswell, Oregon for the 7th annual summer stove camp.  Organizations represented included the International Lifeline Fund for Darfur, CEIHD, UCB, University of Illinois Bond Research Group, Trees Water People, SEA Limited, AidAfrica, GIRA, Colorado State University, Create, and the University of Oregon.

A good time was had by all as we camped, cooked lunch on rocket stoves, shared information, and built and tested stoves.
