The Barony of Black Diamond invites you to come join us in celebrating the 25th anniversary of Ice Castles! The theme for the event is “Silver”, and we have planned a day full of fighting, feasting, and A&S competitions in the heart of winter. We hope that you will join us in the warmth of friendship to celebrate this very special occasion. Martial Activities: There will be a 3 man armored round-robin tourney, with a limit of one knight per team. There will also be a 3 man round-robin rapier tourney with a limit of one white scarf on each team. There will also be a novice tourney for each discipline.
Arts & Sciences Activities: Along with the Silver theme of the event, the A&S competitions will be "All Things Argent." There will be a competition for best use of whitework or silver in illumination as well as a competition for silver accessories. Contact Wenllyan for more information. Email: theoriginalmcc@gmail.com
