In addition to the Rapier and Armored tournaments we typically see at an anniversary, we also got to participate in handbow and crossbow tournaments. The 2-day format allowed for revelry at night which was wonderful, even with the rain and the battling of the elements. The site and the people made it well worth the trip, and I look forward to heading back up there for Fire and Ice later in the year<\/p>\n<p>Our own Anniversary, of course holds a special place in my heart. I can&#8217;t thank everyone enough for all of the work that they put in to make this event run smoothly. A special thanks to Petrusha and Giacchino for being the event stewards and coordinating everyone else and coming up with such fun activities for the day. The classes were a great success and I heard lots of positive reviews on them as well as the buy nothing market.<br \/>\nWe had a great turnout for the Arts competition and I loved hearing about the processes and learnings that many of the artists spoke on for their displays.<\/p>\n<p>I am excited for each of our new champions, who all put forward their best and emerged as the champions in their fields.<\/p>\n<p>The new champions are:<br \/>\nArmored: Giovanni del Pace<br \/>\nRapier: Eoghan Ui Confri<br \/>\nC&#038;T: Diago de las Casas<br \/>\nYouth combat: Seamus of Gyldenholt<br \/>\nArts &#038; Sciences: Cassandre Lostenau<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re looking forward to the next month, and all the events coming up, including Potrero War, St. Jude&#8217;s Fundraiser Tournament and Crescent Artisan.<\/p>\n<p>In Service to the Dream,<br \/>\nBaroness Amabel Radleigh<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello Altavia!
