[Artemisia] Reminder: BLS Swap Meet on Saturday, 10 - 4

[Richard & Florence Evans]

The Barony of Loch Salann will hold a "Swap-Meet" on Saturday, Aug 22nd, from 10 am to 4 pm, at Their Excellencies' home.  The "Swap-Meet" will be for SCA-related items, including camping equipment, craft and sewing items, fabrics, garb, etc. (Please DO NOT use this as an opportunity to clean out Grandma's attic . . . old bicycles, TV's, snow globes, flower pots - you get the general idea - are NOT the kinds of items we are looking for.)  We will also have excess loaner garb, no-longer-needed baronial property and the ever-growing "lost and found" collection for sale.  There are three ways to participate:

 

DONATE YOUR UNNEEDED ITEMS TO THE BARONY.  The money made from the sale of those items is a donation to the Barony.  

 

SELL YOUR OWN ITEMS AND TAKE HOME YOUR CASH.  Bring a table and a sunshade and set up your own little shop in Their Excellencies' backyard.  Set your own prices, make your own deals and clear out some space in your house.

 

COME AND SHOP AND HAVE LUNCH!  There are bound to be lots of deals to be had!  There will be garb that could be perfect with just a small amount of altering and the right piece of trim.  Get a deal on craft items, so you can try out a new craft without spending a lot of money.  And find those last few items to complete your camping kitchen!  There will also be a fund-raiser lunch of grilled burgers and brats.  Cold drinks will also be sold.

 

Remember that the Barony can only accept cash and personal checks.  And the same is probably true for members of the populace who will be selling their wares.  Members of other baronies are welcome to attend and participate as well, but please, no merchants.  "Mundane" friends are welcome to shop or donate (appropriate items), but only SCA members may sell their own items.

 

Their Excellencies live at 972 East 7725 South in Midvale.  (MapQuest is accurate for the address.)  Please direct any questions you may have to Baroness Anna at 801-568-7794 (no calls after 9 pm) or rcfaevans at comcast.net .
