This event will also be the investiture of Caer Galen's new Baron and Baroness, Carrick and Katherina. Come and join Caer Galen as we celebrate this first Baronial transition. Help us remember the reign of the Baron and Baroness Caer Galen, and greet the first Baron and Baroness of Caer Galen.

Current classes include:

  • Documentation for Beginners
  • A Documentation Practicum (bring what you have, get help making it better)
  • A Sari wrapping class
  • A class on hats taught by Mistress Beatricia
  • A Blackwork Embroidery class
  • Late Period German
  • Two Historical Combat classes

To allow those who are competing either at Estrella war or at Kingdom A&S in April a chance to work some of the kinks out, there will be commentary and/or judging available for those who wish feedback. If they are available at the time of the event, the actual judging forms for Estrella and Kingdom A&S will be used to judge the entrants at their request. The choice of commentary or judging will be completely the entrant's. Displays are also encouraged for those who are not quite comfortable with receiving either commentary or judging, or who have previously entered the item in Kingdom A&S.

There will be Peoples choice award, so come give your opinion. In addition to a Laurels' Choice award there will be a Knights' Choice and a Pelicans' Choice and other prizes to be announced.

So mark your calendars and come join Caer Galen in a day of celebration.
