The Aprovecho Stove Camp is a chance for people interested and involved in the research, design, construction, and dissemination of biomass cooking stoves to come together for a hands on collaborative event. Participants will discuss, design, build, and test cook stoves in Aprovecho's laboratory. Sessions for newcomers and stove veterans will run concurrently.

Nordica MacCarty will do a training on how to use the Portable Emissions Monitoring System (PEMS) at Stove Camp July 16-20. We can evaluate emissions using the PEMS.

Paul Anderson will teach a session on TLUD (Top Lit Updraft) stoves.

We are awarding a $250 prize to the best natural draft stove...and doing a very thorough two day review called" Almost Everything About Stoves" that will run concurrently as folks build and test best stoves. (Two tracks happening at the same time). Tami Bond will probably be there and Dale Andreatta along with many other notables. Aprovecho has THREE COOL NEW STOVES to share.

COME ONE, COME ALL! Directions, etc. to follow!! Sailing on the lake, too!
