Have you ever been called a deluder, equivocator, fabler, fabricator of tales, fibber or trickster? Surely there are those among us who've been labeled a bag of wind, blatherskite, boaster, gasbag, know-it-all or hotshot? What about a bandit, kleptomaniac, pilferer, porch climber, spider or swindler? If you, or someone you know, fall into these categories, we request that you attend our annual Spring Thing event hosted by the Canton of Westland Mor on June 2, 2012. We will build our thieves den at Twin Lakes Park; no street address, Pavilion #5, in Greensburg, Pa 15601. Nary will a dull moment be had by those wanting to participate in heavy weapons fighting and fencing. The prize? Why, bragging rights for the day, of course! Or, show-off your skills with axes and knives at our thrown weapons range. But, don't be too much of a windbag, or you might miss out on our brewing competition. This year's theme? Tea! Beg, borrow or steal your best mix of teas and show them off to our contemptible crew of judges. Keep a close eye on your secret recipe, however, or it might just walk off in someone's pocket!
A boastful day board and feast will be prepared by our Feastocrat THLady Caitilin and her hijacking helpers Lady Rosheen and Lord Gunther. They filched from many nobles to bring you plenty of mouthwatering treats befitting a pack of thieves.
The site opens at 10am and closes at 8pm. Anyone left onsite at that time will be conscripted to the clean up crew. The autocrats for this event are: Lord Garith Craig (GarithCraig@att.net) and Lady Elizabeth Thorne (thorneskeep1@yahoo.com) 724-850-7404. Please send any dietary concerns to our co-Feastocrat Lady Rosheen (mmbtones12@hotmail.com). Feast is limited to 50 gentles! Adults (16 and older), on-board $15 and off-board $8; Younger folk (6-15), on-board $8 and off-board $4; Children under age 6 are free. A family cap of $50 shall exist. The $5 non-member surcharge will be collected at check-in for those without proof of current SCA membership (please do not include this in your pre-registration fee). Our Reservations Clerk is Lady Cainder ingen Chonchobair (mka Glenna Connor - 106 Connor Lane, Loyalhanna, PA 15661, 724-539-1531 and cantonexchequer@stswithinsbog.org).
