[Artemisia] Barony of Sentinels' Keep Arts and Sciences Competition and Rapier Tournament

[VLJ1930 at aol.com]

War is over! (…at least for another year?)  As our fighters make their way 
home and  slowly nurse their wounds and heal their aches; consorts, family and 
friends  entertain themselves with various projects of the arts and sciences 
nature.  Many days (and nights) have been filled  with spinning and weaving, 
hammering and polishing, scribing and painting,  boiling and baking, stitching 
and b-----ing…(blush) 
Now it is time for all clans, tribes  and families to come together in the 
valley of the Keep on the banks of the Five  Rivers to celebrate the coming of 
SPRING.   
It is time to be PROUD and display  the fruits of our labors.  It is  time to 
proclaim one among us as “Champion of the Arts and Sciences of the  Barony of 
Sentinels’ Keep”!  Everyone is welcome to bring A&S  items to be displayed 
and judged but only a member of the Barony will be  declared ‘Baronial Champion’
.   Anyone wishing to become the Champion must enter a minimum of 4 entries  
from 2 grand categories.  We will  follow the Kingdom of Artemisia rules and 
judging criteria.  But be cheered… there will also be  “Overall Champion”, “
Populace Choice” and “Novice” awards  that are open to all.  And wait…  there’
s more!  There will be special  prizes too!  (Contact MoAS for more  details, 
forms, etc.) 
It is also time to be entertained by  the prowess and cunning of those who 
practice the art of the duel and rejoice as  one is proclaimed “Rapier Champion 
of Sentinels’ Keep”! ALL are welcome to enter! 
It is time to feast and to bring your  best and tasty dishes to share with 
the appreciative populace.   We may not proclaim you a  ‘Feast Champion’ but we 
will claim you ‘Friend’! (See Feast  planning information below) 
It is a time to barter and purchase  lovely items brought from far and wide 
for our now legendary ‘Arts and  Sciences Auction’ and also from our 
supportive and clever vendors.  Thank you in advance for bringing your  generous 
donation of items suitable for use in the SCA. (And don’t forget your  money pouches 
either!) 
But all may not be as quiet and  restful as one may wish for…be forewarned!   
And please, do not  stray too far from the baronial enclosure…
