Join us at our Annual Squire's Tourney April 28th, 2012 in the Canton
of Ealdnordwuda.

Please bring your own feast gear.


We request that you leave your candles and candlesticks at home. The feast tables are often very crowded with platters and feast gear. The staff might set small candles on the tables for ambiance, but the church’s official policy is no fire indoors or out.

Lapsitters do not have to pay for feast, but children who take up a chair should be counted as an adult feast attendee ($10) due to space restrictions.

Remember that servers eat free from leftovers and Ealdnordwudan cooks are (in)famous for feeding the populace into submission. Children make great drinks servers...

Please sign up for feast early to ensure you have the seating you prefer and so that we have the correct count on who will be sitting feast and if we need to add or remove tables.

Dishwashing and clean-up volunteers are always, always welcome and thanked heartily with free leftovers and hearty gratitude! To volunteer, show up after feast in the feast hall ready to work.

A Spanish feast to honor our most wonderful Baronessa.
