Vulcanalia

Registration Information

Please contact our Landocrat, Magdi Tynkere, at stychwytch@gmail.com for RV or Camping Space (read: “Land Grab”) BY September 5th.  There should be plenty of camping space for all if you miss the deadline, but do not give our landocrat or other members of the event team any grief about the open camping space, etc.

Accessibility Information

The North Field (where the archery takes place) is an unimproved flat expanse.  There will be handicapped biffies.

Meal Information

After Evening Court, we shall begin the festivities with the Best Volcano Contest (winner to be chosen by applause). Then we are having a Pot Luck featuring Barbequed Foods.  Roasted beast and vegan entries should be cooked separately, as should any gluten-free options (please bring ingredients cards for food allergy considerations). During the Feast, we’re having a fun Bardic Contest for a prize!

Then we’re having a Vulcanalia themed TOGA PARTY on Saturday night, where Roman-inspired Garb is encouraged (but the authenticity police are not) and Festive Beverages may be discretely shared. There’s even a Belly Dancing Class! Frivolity is the order of the night! Beware of Silliness – it will happen – you have been warned!

Volunteer Information

Baroness Fiona ingen Conchobair not only needs help with Gate on Friday, we need someone to RUN Gate on Saturday!  And Ciosa will need help with Lists, please!   Many hands are always appreciated for set up and take down!  MANY Target Archery Marshals are needed to run all of the shoots.  Should there be an interest in Cut & Thrust we would need a marshal for that.  NOTE: during the plague times many Marshaling Warrants and Fighter’s Authorization Cards have expired.  Please be sure that yours are up to date.  We realize there is a bit of bottle-neck due to the dearth of those able to authorize such, so don’t wait till the last minute.
