Cooks Symposium Cancelled

Posted by

From the Calonlist:

Unto Calontir, Greetings!

As one of the event stewards for the Cooks’ Symposium schedule for April 25-26th,  I regret to inform you that the leadership of the Guild is cancelling this event.

The current stewards took over for someone who was moving out of Kingdom, and have encountered logistical difficulties with site acquisition that make it untenable at this time for us to move forward.  We feel it is in the best interest of the Guild to focus the group’s time and attention on Lilies activities for this year, and to reset and look at planning for a Symposium in 2017.  We appreciate the offers of help we received, particularly from prospective teachers, and we hope you will consider sharing your classes with the Kingdom and our guests at Lilies.  Thank you for bearing with us, and we look forward to bringing you a terrific Symposium in 2017!

Sincerely,

Aline Swynbroke

Official Equestrian Practices 2/20 & 2/21

Posted by

Harvested from the CalonList:

 

Duke Eringlin, through the gracious support of the Shire of Standing Stones, will be conducting two official equestrian practices on consecutive days next month: Friday, February 20th and Saturday, February 21st.

The practices will be held at:

Echo Valley Stables
9885 Splice Creek Dr.
Prairie Home, MO 65068

It is in the Standing Stones area.
The short Friday evening practice (6pm-9pm) will be focused on riding and games authorizations, for those who are either bringing their own equine or who have made arrangements to use someone else’s. The Saturday practice will run from approximately 9am to 6pm and be focused on jousting, both foam-tip and wood-tip.

The facilities will be spartan: the barn is unheated and the nearest bathrooms are a short walk away. Attendees are on their own for meals.

Crash space is very limited, as is space for equines apart from a barb wire fenced pasture. If you need crash space or space for an equine, you *must* RSVP to me or Duke Eringlin so that we can make sure there is space for everyone and every equine.

All that said, we encourage interested equestrians and ground crew to join us for one or both practices.

Your Servant,
Edward de Kent

What is al-Mahala?

Gulf Wars XXII presents a magical opportunity for the SCA re-enactor to explore the widest possible range of historical activities. This twenty plus year tradition of rich diversity of topics is well represented within the microcosm of al Mahala, offering classes in cuisine, music, dance, garb, arts and sciences of not only The Levant, the Arabian Peninsula and Persia, but also India, Andalusia; Ottoman and Silk Road regions as well…

Lily vs. Lion Arts and Sciences Competition at Chieftains

Posted by

Announcing the Lily vs. Lion Arts and Sciences Competition at Chieftains, sponsored by the Lilies War.

To be held at Chieftains, a fine competition to display both your patriotism to your chosen side at Lilies, and the creative endeavors our kingdom creates through presentation of either a lily or a lion in any medium. Minimum documentation is a 3×5 index card identifying your piece, country of origin, and time period. Use of the Lilies 100 Years War theme and additional information on your piece creation is encouraged but not required.

Will you serve the French through your representation of a lily or show the worth of Englishmen through your creation of a lion?
