Lochmere
Come one and all to join Their Excellencies, Vlad and Medb and celebrate the birthday of the Barony of Lochmere. In celebration of this glorious event there will be a tournament in the style of the Masters of Defense. Combatants will fight in five forms each of both heavy and rapier. The five forms for the heavy list will include Weapon and Shield, Great sword, Polearm, Double Weapon, Single Sword. Rapier will include Single Weapon, Double Weapon, Sword and Buckler, Sword and Dagger and Weapon and Parry Device.
Please contact the Event Steward with pavilion requests and sizes. We can not guarantee that you will be able to set up near the list field, but we will do our best to provide a comfortable viewing area.
There will be a Children's Activity tent set up far enough from the list field to keep small children out of harm's way. Lady Hrosvitha von Celle is in charge of Children's Activities. NOTE: A parent or legal guardian must accompany and remain with any child brought to the Activity tent. Please contact Vitha at kerrimart@mindspring.com for more information.
A savory 14th Century English feast will be prepared by Roswitha of Suanesfeld. Some dishes may contain wine and/or nuts; for any allergy or dietary concerns, contact Roswitha (Jean Amann) at jnamann@comcast.net or 410-997-9484 (NLT 9).
The Barony will also be sponsoring a fund-raising lunch at a cost of $5.00 to benefit the Baronial fighting community.
A silent auction will be held during the day to raise funds for Baronial equipment in need of replacement or repair. Please see the Lochmere website (http://lochmere.atlantia.sca.org/) for further details and a list of just a few of the items up for bids.
