[Linda Kinzy]

19 January 2008  -  Shire of Silver Keep  - Bozeman, MT



Greetings to the gentle folk throughout the great and mighty Kingdom of Artemisia. The populace of the Shire of Silver Keep is eagerly anticipating the Shire's upcoming birthday. We invite all to throw off the doldrums of winter and come celebrate our Shire's birthday at Birthday Bash XXII.

 A traditional Bearpit tournament will be held to decide both our tournament and Shire's champions. A rapier tournament will also be held. 

Our site features a snowy hill perfect for sledding that both young and old can enjoy, so fighters, bring your shields.

Activities will be available for children  and there will be A&S happenings all through the day, including an A&S Competition.  Tournaments, activities, classes, prizes, and more will surely warm up any cold and dreary heart. 

 

A&S COMPETITION will be held in the afternoon along with classes. If you would like to enter an item in the A&S Competition or would like to teach a class, please contact Ysabel de Torreón at ysabel_de_torreon at yahoo.com .
