[Artemisia] New School Opening

[Robert Woodruff]

With the Captain Generals approval, 

I would like to announce the opening of a new school, which, hopefully, will be supported by Blackwing members one and all. Blackwing is the parent of this idea/school and needs it support. It is a culmination of the desires of the Captain General's to increase our positive exposure of the Blackwing Company to the Kingdom at large. 
The school's mandate is to provide socialization skills to the members of the Kingdom and the company. This schools focus will be non-fighting arts and sciences, grace and decorum. It is open to all members of the Society and Kingdom. 
Classes that I would like to see happen include, but are not limited to; 

Tea and Crumpets - the correct (English) way to brew and serve tea and cakes

Flower arranging - a study of various cultures method of the arrangement and display of natures beauty.

Basket Weaving - a skill that is invaluable in today's society.
Sewing - Well, we do use this a great deal

Courtly Graces - Detailed instruction on how to present yourself and others to the crown. 

Gaming - This will be limited to documentable games of the SCA period. 

If anyone has an idea for a class they would like to teach on a given subject please contact me. We are looking for instructors of all types and skill levels. 
Please feel free to join us and help our Kingdom grow. 

Yours in Faithful Service, 
Fr. Robert, Lord Bedlam, Provost Blackwing Company
