To combat the time of penitence and abstinence
which is soon upon us, the Barony of Highland
Foorde invites one and all to a day of foolishness
and frivolity. We plan to feast –ALL DAY– play games,
listen to bards tell stories and sing songs, dance, laugh,
did I mention eat, and drink. We invite our friends
for a last day of gaiety before the Lent begins. When: Saturday, February 21, 2009

Come, choose a table, adorn it with your feast gear and utensils and prepare to be awed by the food and entertained with foolish activities. We invite our guests to wear their most beautiful garb, adorn it with something fun and foolish. Bring your best smiles and your sense of humor; you never know what silly thing will tickle you.
Join the bards for challenges and filks, the dancers for dancing, the gamesters for dice and board games. Challenges of many kinds will be running all day between the courses.
