Practice and Mini-Demo Kale' Hrafnsdottir

Greetings Wintermist. We are in the process of planning our next Fighter Practice/Demo. The place: Almondale Park 5501 Verdugo Lane, Bakersfield, CA 93312. When: Thursday April 30th. We are looking for individuals to come out and help promote Wintermist and the SCA, by dressing in garb, bringing out your A&S activities or music, or simply hang out and enjoy the evening with friends. I’ll be bringing our little Chatelaine pavilion, along with business cards, pamphlets and other materials. Remember everyone is a chatelaine, so if you see someone looking on with interest, please go up and introduce yourself, tell them who we are and what’s going on. Or you can always direct them over to the chatelaine pavilion 🙂 More info will follow the closer we get to the event.

Practice! Sherlin Goldhammer

Watched Fonzi and Tibs do some Harness, chatted with some new folks, talked about bardic stuff. All in all, a wonderful night.
A lot of teaching tonight too!
Missing some folks from the photo who left before we took it but with us in spirits

Also the final categories for the year-long A&S competition will be announced at our Baronial Business Meeting on Tuesday (remember this changed for this month due to scheduling conflict 😊). Bring a work-in-progress (something started in the last year) for a free point.
