Night On The Town
(2014-03-21 - 2014-03-23 - Site opens at 5 PM & Closes at 12 PM)
Lochmere

The year is 1604 and there is a special spring fayre planned in the town of Smeewick. The harsh winter has abated early and the people have come out of hiding to celebrate before hitting the fields for more earnest work. The anxious young children are eager to play and even the adults have plans to knock off some winter rust and show their skill with the sword and bow. Join us in celebration of the town’s good fortune and hopes for a prosperous year.

Martial Activities:  Atlantia\'s premier rapier event is upon us! Lord Terasu has a splendid day planned for all rapier combatants who hear the call of spring. A full day of melee battles is planned. We will have archery and thrown weapons available as well as a youth armored tournament and practice. Rapier combatants who wish to authorize will want to be ready by 9:00am. Please bring any martial questions to Lord Terasu byemail at sanadaterasu[AT]yahoo.com

Arts & Sciences Activities:  The locals have decided to help pass on their craft to a new generation by letting budding artisans try out new crafts (artisan’s row) without having to invest all their pence. There will also be an open display for you to come and show your creations as well as an open competition based on the theme of Spring. Please contact Lady Erennach at larissa.lefler[AT]yahoo.com with any questions.
