At the same time, we will be holdng a competition to decide the next Champion of Westgate.  The format will be single-item, with documentation required.  A letter (or e-mail) of intent is requested from all those who wish to enter, so that we can arrange to have judges with the right expertise on hand.

The day will be rounded off with a small feast, followed by a bardic circle in the hall.  The number of feast reservations will be limited, so we recommend you reserve early.  Unreserved feasts will be sold at the door on a first-come, first-served basis.

Come out and enjoy the day with Westgate!
