Toys For Tots
 
Once again it is that time of year that we the Shire of Arrows Flight do  
call upon the most noble and chivalrous folk of our great kingdom. We invite you  
to join us this day and show all the honor and generosity of our most noble  
society.  The year is 1066 and we are somewhere in England, and it’s  
Christmas Day. For days now everyone at the castle has been busy preparing the  
special food dishes to be served that night in the Grand Hall. All the castles  
rooms and halls have been cleaned and decorated in preparation for this special  
day and now all are waiting for the arrival of you, our guests and friends, so  
the fun and games can begin. 
 
Activities planned for this day will be many and all will challenge your  
strength, wit, speed and skills. On this day we will be determining our shire’s  
Arts and Sciences champion. There will be many tournaments this day for fun 
and  honor. Tourneys for hard suit, rapier, boffer, and period games will help 
all  contestants to collect extra tokens to determine the winner of the day. We 
hope  to have storytellers, bards, and other performers to help entertain our 
guests  this day. 
 
We ask that you bring you bring at least one toy and a canned food item.  You 
may bring more toys and use the tokens from their donation towards bribes  
and or rewards for contestants and performers in the different tourneys and  
activities of the day. Toys should be unwrapped and unopened in their original  
packaging. All food items should be non perishable. All toys will be donated to 
 the United States Marine Corps Toys for Tots program. All food items will be 
 donated to the local food bank.
