One of the most popular demonstrations at Rock River Thresheree's Annual Reunion is arguably the working Blacksmith & Wheelwright Shop, where spectators can watch master smiths and wrights working with the tools of their trades. The Blacksmith Shop Committee makes sure that there are smiths, wrights, materials and supplies ready for our four-day Reunion.

Blacksmith Jeff Murphy is the Chairman of our Blacksmith Shop Committee -- and also a proud member of the Upper Midwest Blacksmith Association* (UMBA), which holds their annual summer convention at our Thresherman's Park every summer. Jeff's phone number can be found on our Committee Chairs page.
