(please forward where appropriate -- apologies to those who receive 
this numerous times)

Heralds, scribes, scholars - heed these new greetings!  The Kingdom 
of Gleann Abhann would be honored by your presence at the 2006 Known 
World Heraldic & Scribal Symposium.  Your brethren from across the 
Known World will be coming to share in the fun and classes that you 
just don't want to miss.

The event will be held at the Four Points by Sheraton New Orleans 
(www.fourpointsneworleans.com) in Metarie, Louisiana - a short 
distance to the French Quarter and other area attractions. Shuttle 
service may be available from the Louis Armstrong International 
Airport in Kenner to the hotel. There is free parking at the hotel. A 
rate of $82 a night has been negotiated for the event - please call 
(504) 885-5700 and ask for the SCA rate.  

There will be a meet and greet Friday night at the hotel, classes 
during the day on Saturday, and the ever popular Laurel Roadshow 
Sunday morning. Instead of a traditional feast, you may choose to 
dine at one of the New Orleans area's many great and famous eateries 
with fellow Symposium attendees.  A field trip is in the works for 
non-heralds for Sunday morning - check 
www.sca.org/heraldry/laurel/kwhs/KWHSWebpage.html for updates.

The deadlines for proceedings articles is this Saturday -- April 
15th.  Please contact THL Colm Dubh at scat at cfl.rr.com to be 
included.  The 2006 KWHSS Proceedings will be available for $15.

Class deadline is May 15th.  We will have five class tracks:  
omnastics, armory, administrative and practical heraldry, beginning 
scribal arts, and advanced scribal arts.  Please contact Barun Rory
