[Artemisia] Windegate

[J HARRISON]

The Shire of Windegate invites one and all to gather for Whipping Winds IV, 
August 24-26 at Williamson Park outside Shelby Montana. Our site will 
provide ample shade and a break from the wind being located amongst the 
cottonwoods along the banks of the Marias River. The weekend will be filled 
with classes, archery, and armored combat all culminating in our pig roast 
feast on Saturday evening. A soup kitchen will be available on Friday as a 
Shire fundraiser. Merchants are welcome and we ask but a small donation to 
our auction that will be held after feast. Bring your currency for we will 
have many goodies.

Last year the gale force blew in from the north, issuing from the lands of 
Avacal, and decimated the forces of Artemisia's northern border. A call is 
issued to all fighters, heavy and rapier, and the archers of our kingdom to 
defend our border from yet another onslaught of these dreaded foe and dear 
friends. Archers will have the opportunity to 'reduce' the number of heavy 
combatants by participating in our legendary clout shoot. You do not have to 
be a combat archer to take part; just have your period archery gear at hand.

The site will open 10 a.m. on Friday August 24 and closes at 4 p.m. Sunday 
the 26th. Site fee is $15.00 per adult, children 10 and under $7.00. Family 
cap on site fee is $40.00. All non-SCA members will be required to pay a 
$3.00 nonmember surcharge for each nonmember.
Feast fee is $10.00 per adult, children 10 and under $5.00. Family cap for 
feast is $30.00. Feast is limited to 150 people. Make checks payable to the 
Shire of Windegate.

The Marias River passes along the edge of site property which will offer 
wading or swimming if the temperature is warm. Parents are asked to keep 
watch over your smalls. Children's activities are planned but we remind all 
that it is not a babysitting service. Site has 2 playgrounds for the young 
or young at heart.

Directions: Take best route to Interstate HWY 15. Take exit 358 and follow 
route to Williamson Park. Signs will be posted to guide all travelers. If 
you cross the river you have gone too far. Shelby is 7 miles north of site 
and has motels, food and grocery stores but specialty items may be hard to 
find. Plan ahead. The site is wet, but please use period containers. Water 
will be available on site. Sorry, no pets allowed.
