The Barony of Grey Niche
cordially
invites one and all to
The Festival of Beltaine
AND
Gleann Abhann Fighters' Collegium
April 27-29 at the Mississippi Group Camp at Meeman Shelby Forrest
Come join us for a weekend of gaming,
feasting, dancing, reveling, and (of course) fighting, as we celebrate the
festival of Beltaine. There will be period board games available for all to
enjoy in the hall, as well as bocce and shuttlecocke tourneys outdoors. There
will be a period board games tourney with a different game played each round, so
brush up on your Nine Men's Morris and your Fox and Geese (rules will be
available at Troll and in the hall). After feast you can dance the evening away
at the ball or while away the hours playing Byzantine chess at the coffeehouse.
The A&S competition will likewise take a gaming theme. Bring those period
golf clubs you've been dying to show off, or your new leather chess sets. Heck -
if it's gaming, bring it. The annual Silver Torc tourney will be a crest
tourney, with an additional prize awarded for "best crest" as voted by
the ladies of the gallery.
But
that's not all, because for one low price you get 2 (that's right two) events in
one.
The Principality of Gleann Abhann will
be honing its warriors into a fearsome and deadly army. While the non-fighters
among us are playing games or attending classes in the afternoon, the warriors
among us will be training on the field. Let's make the Gleann Abhann contingent
of the Meridian Army a force to be feared.
