Meal Information
BBQ!
(BBQ Wrangler His Excellency Wulfgar)
In the morning, the Seagirt Coffee Urn will be on site.
Please BYO snacks/ beverages for during the day.
Starting around 5pm, the BBQ will be fired up! Their Excellencies are contributing a leg of pork. The event will supply some buns and greens, but not a neverending amount. Please bring something to share if you can, potluck BBQ style, and label for ingredients.
Back yard area is “discretely damp”. Range field is dry. No “damp” individuals may participate in marshal activities.
Tournament Information
Archery!
(MIC Isabella da Firenze, MIC’s in training Kheron Azov and Azriel di Cabra)
There will be prize tournaments in archery: one will only be open to new archers (definition of “new” to be determined by the Archery MIC team), one will be open to everyone. Everyone wishing to shoot in the tourney should bring something (can be small, like a roll of duct tape, or fancier if you like, up to and including quivers or bows) to contribute to the prize table. Contact Athelina or Her Excellency Aniko for ideas on good prizes!
The archery range will also be open for Royal Rounds and potentially the Society Seasonal Archery Competition. The summer SSAC requires 10 arrows, so if you want to put in a score for that, please bring arrows, or arrange to share/ borrow. Open range time will be dependent on marshal availability.

The thrown weapons range has potential to be open all day, pending marshal availability! Throw things!
