Join
us at our Annual Squire's Tourney April 28th, 2012 in the Canton
of Ealdnordwuda.
A&S Activities:
Competition:
A slight spin on a traditional bean count. Comment booklets will be
available for each entry. There will be two winners--one a “Laurel’s
Pick” and the other the “Populace’s Choice”.
Ties will be broken by the Event Staff.
Youth Activity:
Lady Anthoinette Martel
A tradition of Squires Revolt is the afternoon barroom brawl. The actual
fight is among adult fighters in heavy weapons and rapier. However,
bystanders can join in by throwing special “weapons” and
attack animals in from the sides. Children who would like to participate
from the sidelines may join us for a special “weapons” making
class to be used later in the brawl.
Period “Cookies”:
Bring a batch of period “cookies” or small pastries to be
displayed in the A&S area. Votes will be counted with beans by the
populace. Entries must include a complete ingredient list at minimum
to avoid allergy issues, but can also include documentation and recipes.
Leftovers will be served during the dessert course of feast so please
plate on a disguised disposable serving platter/bowl if you won’t
be in attendance for feast. Knives and napkins will be available for
display.
Classes:
