During this hard time there are brief moments of non-fighting. Come join us in the Barony of Ponte Alto and enjoy a day of peace before war breaks out again. A country faire atmosphere will cover the area. There will be some fighting of course, but only for the most honorable of causes, Love and Beauty. We will also have a non-judged display for your A&S projects finished and in progress. Come display and discuss your works with the populace. Bring your musical instruments to entertain and instruct.
Food will abound. A warming luncheon of soups and accompaniments will be sold for $5.00 a plate and a fabulous French feast for 100 will be prepared by Baroness Graciela for the evening repast.
Martial Activities: Armored and rapier fighting will take place in the Equestrian Barn throughout the day. This is an enclosed building, but dress for warmth as the building is not heated.
A&S Activities will be held in the main hall with plenty of room for everyone. Please have your items set up by 12:00 and picked up by 4:00 to allow time for set up for Court and Feast.
