[Artemisia] Update on Arabian Nights Party

[John Lawler]

Arabian Knights
August 13-14 (Friday and Saturday)

This is another theme event to follow the Pirate Party we held last year. 
This is a non-sanctioned SCA event, but we will be playing SCA the whole 
time. We realize that we accidentally scheduled this event the same weekend 
as the Camp-Make-A-Dream demo in BSK, and we apologize because we know there 
are many people who will want to participate in both.

The first activity planned is the Brotherhood Housecarl Tourney. This is 
planned for 4:00 p.m. on Friday, and lasts about 2 hours. This tournament is 
one of the most challenging five-weapon-style tourney this Kingdom has to 
offer.... so be prepared!

Friday evening, we will rid the forest of a most evil presence... 
WEREWOLVES!!! The war drums will echo into the night, armor will be donned, 
hounds and hunters will gather, and blood will be spilled. Followed, of 
course, by dancing and revelry into the night at the "Qadi's Palace."

On Saturday, we have scheduled many epic battles on various fighting fields, 
castle siege's, bridge's, through cities, and finally to the gates of the 
Holy City as the Arabs battle the Crusaders for conquest.

Saturday evening, the Qadi's Palace will once again open to all for revelry 
and dancing. Please bring your best middle-eastern outfits so you can better 
partake in the festivities. The bar will be open, but all are encouraged to 
help bring supplies. We also need assistance in creating the perfect 
atmosphere and ambiance for "Qadi's Palace," so please bring as many middle 
eastern pillow, rugs, lanterns, decorations, etc. as you can spare.

The Brotherhood will be hosting a fund raising kitchen to help purchase a 
period kitchen pavilion. The cost will be $35 which will cover lunch and 
dinner on Friday; Breakfast, lunch and dinner on Saturday (Yes, we will be 
roasting gyro's on a spit); And brunch on Sunday. All are welcome. Please 
R.S.V.P  A.S.A.P to Qadi Dahoud by e-mail qadidahoud at yahoo.com or call 
406-370-7435.
