Octoberfest

October 17th, 2009

Baronly of Wealdsmere

As the leaves fall from the mighty oaks of Wealdsmere and our populace readies themselves for the coming winter, the Barony of Wealdsmere would humbly request that you to join us for a day of fighting, feasting, charity and  friendship.

Let it be known that on the 17th day of October, our neighbors throughout AnTir are invited to join us for our Annual Octoberfest Toys-For-Tots Championship.

Try your hand in our heavy and rapier tourneys, A & S competition and display and Games tournament, with entry fees to all competitions being a new, unwrapped toy ($5 minimum) for donation to the Marines holiday charity drive.

Additional merryment will include dancing, learning and  feasting in the general autumn splendor.  Bardic will begin immediately prior to Court.

The Barony will be providing a warm lunch for a donation, and will supply a main course of meat and bread for the evening feast; the feast is a potluck.  If your first SCA name begins with:   A-F  Appetizer, G-O Main Dish / Meat and P – Z Side Dish.
