Meal Information

Here be the Potluck Sides info!

There are provided mains of a carnivorous type (depending on availability, I’m aiming for roast turkey & ham). Desserts should be covered by the Immaculate Confection portion of the event.

Each adult attending should bring a side to feed 8-10 people. Veggies, root veggies, stuffings, breads, spreads like butter or compounded butters, sauces, cheeses, fruits, pickles and preserves, and sure, salad. Salads are fine too.

Please jot down what the dish is and what ingredients it contains to help those with allergies and sensitivities.

Lastly, if there are specified GF or Vegan or Vegetarian dishes at the feast and you aren’t GF, Vegan or Vegetarian, try and leave those dishes for those who have special dietary needs. Consider it for your second helping. The every and always awesome Jerrick / Pax is the contact for this portion of the event.

Youth and Family Activities

Seagirt Yule, Cozy Yule, Little Day of Warm.
Seagirt Yule and Bardic Championship is coming up soon!
We’ve set aside December 14 for an easy and social afternoon/evening starting at 3pm to gather and engage in the competition to become the new Siren of Seagirt.
What to expect? We will have:
• Games to be shared at long tables.
• Crafts stations to make some pretty things.
• Exciting indoor Equestrian (cough)
• Dance led by Her Highness, Athelina Grey
• Potluck with Main Meat dishes provided
• Cozy social
• Bring a gift, take a gift
• Court!
This event is officially dry, however, wait…breathe, Mile Zero brewing is a 1.5 minute walk away, maybe even closer. If you would like, feel free to take a quick stroll for an award winning libation or two, they have a variety of tap beer and local cider . No judging but the licensing was a bit difficult to navigate for our event.
Local Resources:
I’d like to start by saying, Downtown Metchosin consists of two perpendicular streets where the event is in the centre of the crossing. Downtown is maybe a block and a half long. You’ll find it.
Metchosin Store: they have everything you could need ($$$).
My Chosen Cafe: eat in / take out (if you forgot your potluck on the counter at home).
Sugar Shack: (attached to cafe) has lovely, locally made gifts and treats, hot and cold beverages, ice cream, absolutely killer sweets and treats.
My Chosen Pizza: some of Victoria’s best pizza. Did you forget your potluck offering? They can also help.
Animal Corral: Kids restless? Go to the back of the My Chosen Cafe and meet the donkeys, chickens and goats. They’re behind a fence and they’re sure cute.
Metchosin Pharmacy
Nootka Rose Milling: Want specialty and heritage-grain flour, kernels, brans, and locally grown pulses? They close at 4pm, so maybe hit it up before the event.
Mile Zero Brewing: Beer and cider room.
Metchosin Cemetery: I mention this because if you want to take some photos in garb, it could turn out pretty amazing, just, you know, be considerate.
Anything else? Hit me up with your questions!
Also: Pedder Bay Marina has RV Spots and heated Bunkies (BYO bedding) available and is about 5-ish minutes to site.

Merchant Information

As the hall is on the smaller side and the event is on the shorter side of things, we are not doing any formal merchanting at this event. If you are an attending and paid attendee, it is fine if you bring things to sell, but we do not have room for actual sales tables.

Classes Offered

There will be some A&S Stations of some fun activities. Fionn is the organizer of this portion of the event.
