 Come Join the Barony of Illition at the State of Illinois'
Annual Jubilee Olde English Faire Demo
                       June 24 and 25, 1995

The Barony of Illition is inviting all recipients of this note
to attend a
weekend of tournaments, forsoothness, and general
merriment at the Jubilee Olde English Faire. The Faire
will be located at the State Historic Site at Jubilee College
(Formerly the old Jubilee State Park). The site is
northwestof Peoria, Il, off of I-74 (exit 82 - Kickapoo
/Edwards exit). There are signs directing travelers to
the park from the ramp.

The Grand March will assemble at the top of the hill at
9:30 AM each morning. It is requested that all people
 attending the Faire participate in the march! Please
remember that this is a public relations event, so we
are expected to preserve a realistic appearance during
the day with Medieval garb being worn and speaking
as forsoothly as possible. Shtick is encouraged, both on
and off the list! Remember, this is a show and we must
look good. Practice your forsoothness and have fun!

Craftsmen and Merchants and Performers Permits are
required and can only be obtained by pre-registration
through the state before May 15th; For more information
also contact Baroness Maria Teresa (Jane Crowley)

Fighters, Marshals, Heralds, Garbed Spectators, and
WATERBEARERS are needed for the list area. Fighters
will be cheered on by the masses, so wear your best
 tabards and surcoats. Armor
will be trucked to the list each morning, PROVIDED IT
IS BAGGED UP AND BROUGHT TO THE COLLECTION
POINT NEAR THE PAVILION EACH MORNING. You will
be responsible for loading it into the trucks by 9:00 A.M. FIGHTERS NOTE:
