[Ansteorra-announce] Exploring Chivalry and other classes at Westgate Collegium, Jun 12th

[Hillary Greenslade]

On this glorious day, I send you greetings!

Join the Canton of Westgate at a day of classes for those who fight, those who help them, and
those who watch and wonder at their noble efforts. Expand your role as a chivalric fighter,
support your favorite fighter, or just present a better presence at tourneys ... then this is the
collegium for you!

And on this wintery day (in June) Westgate shall choose our Chivalric Champion from the gentle
found most worthy by our noble judges, aspects of chivalry are explored including courtly
behavior, strategy, grace, technique, graciousness, and knowledge both on the field of honor and
within our fair hall. Our Chivalric Champion will receive a beautiful period list field pavilion,
a handsome cloak and will bear our canton's baldric for the year.
