Description
Help build the braziers (metal baskets on the river) that will set the city alight at sunset. You will get the chance to hop aboard a WaterFire wood boat and help artistically construct the braziers. You will with use cardboard, newspaper and other fire fuse materials in the center of the brazier and build a 'tepee' of firewood around the fire fuse materials. After all braziers on the river are built, you will help reload firewood into the six wood boats for the evening feeds. Afterwards, enjoy lunch with your crew and the WaterFire staff..
