Rapier Championship
It will be a Luck of the Draw Accolades Tournament. Fighters should bring all of the secondaries that they’re authorized to fight with. From an event planning perspective, we’ll need audience participation, so we’ll want to encourage the populace to be present and we’ll need to make sure their’s room for them on the sidelines.
The mask competition will consist of a masquerade parade during lunch. Contenders can either present themselves, have someone wear or carry their mask for presentation. Afterwards, the masks will be put on display for voting. The three categories will be “most historically accurate”, “most creative”, and “coronet’s choice”. Voting will be done by placing a corresponding colored bead for each populace vote in a basket with the mask. Awards will be given in closing court.
Join the Scribes of Dragon’s Mist while we compete to find the best Illuminators in the land. Notecard sized designs and basic supplies will be provided, but feel free to bring your own paint kit. There will be different art to paint for three categories: Youth, Novice and Advanced (older children are welcome to choose one of the other two categories if they want). Prizes for the winner of each category!

Gothic Cathedrals
Near the start of the 12th century, the Catholic Church underwent a revolution in architecture that spread across Europe and has created some of the most recognizable cathedrals today. We will be taking a look at why these changes came into being, along with the strengths and weaknesses of the Gothic style. I will talk about how these magnificent Cathedrals were built, their use, and their meaning to the people of the 12th to 16th centuries.
The class will consist of a Slideshow and lecture, and those attending are strongly suggested to bring notebooks and writing implements. There will be a small handout, and I’m requesting a small fee of $2.00 per person to cover this.
