  • Fall Crown Reminders

    Greetings Calontir!

    As many of you are preparing to travel next weekend to attend Fall Crown Tournament, we have a few reminders for you.

    -The weather is a fickle thing; but, if we can fight outside, we will be doing so. Please bring chairs and suitable garb for whatever the temperatures end up being. Personal shades are welcome if they have ground weights to hold them in place. No ground stakes may be put in the practice field the tournament will take place on.

    -Site is dry.

    -No pets, though service animals are perfectly good.

    -There will be two fundraisers to raise money for the kingdom soup kitchen. The first will be the soup tavern lunch which will be available for donations. The second will be a silent auction. We have some armor pieces, a walnut fyrd mug, a cut and thrust single sword with finger guards (Made by soon to be Master Sir Cai!) , some trim, and some other items. 

    -Sir Cai’s “Ice Cream Social Vigil” will open after the Chiv meeting held after the tournament! 

    -Childrens’ activities wil lbe held after the tournament. Please bring coffee cans and easter eggs to make instruments. (I have heard that these instruments will have a definite opportunity to be used at Lilies this year!)

    -This even is taking place in Andover. There will be stores, gas stations, restaurants, and other service available close to site.

    We look foward to hosting you in our barony, can’t wait to see you soon.

    In Service to Crown, Kingdom, and the Dream,

    Ottar Surtrson
