The purpose of this award is to honor the recipient for service to the field of blacksmithing and to WRABA.
This person need not be the most talented blacksmith, but one who has demonstrated a willingness to serve in fulfillment of our purpose and objectives. These may include: training or establishing training programs for aspiring smiths; exposing the art of blacksmithing to the public through demonstrating at club events; promoting the work of the club, and general sharing of time and talents to support WRABA.
Grant Michener has been awarded WRABA's Blacksmith of the year 2016. Grant has time and again displayed his value to the club. He has volunteered countless times for events at Burton offering demonstrations, helping out at hammer-ins, and open forges. He willingly shares his knowledge and expertise about the craft at every opportunity. Just as importantly, he sits on the board and has a hand in the direction the club takes. Truly a member in which we can all count upon for advice, a third hand at the anvil or answering a question about smithing.
