    We have a real treat for anyone attending Kilt Kamp.

    The Royal BC Museum is hosting a travelling exhibit put on my The Field Museum, Chicago. It is called "Mammoth's Giants of the Ice Age".

    Along with the rest of a very impressive exhibit is Lyuba. A 40,000 year old baby mammoth found in the Siberian tundra in 2007.

    This is the first time Lyuba has been exhibited in Canada.



    You may have heard about Lyuba or seen the story and articles done on this amazing find by The National Geographic. I never in my life expected to be able to see Lyuba herself. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.
    For anyone attending Kamp we will find a free afternoon and I will offer personally guided tours of our museum and you too can stand next to Lyuba.

    For those who would like you can also see Piper James Cleland Richardson's Pipes.


    And of course you get my famous talk on the poles made by the First People of the Pacific NW with an opportunity to see and touch these magnificent pieces of cultural history.
