<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Greetings unto the most stellar Kingdom of
the Sable Star.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> In the far north of our mighty kingdom as a
sentinel upon the border stands<BR>the Canton of Chemin Noir they are the last
bastion of Ansteorran<BR>hospitality and pride before crossing over into foreign
lands. This small<BR>outpost is held by a brave host of the biggest-hearted
Ansteorrans one might<BR>ever meet. This weekend (November 9-11) the small but
happy band in Chemin<BR>Noir have called for a fair to celebrate their
harvest.and so they shall<BR>have it. Come then and join the Canton of Chemin
Noir as the celebrate the fall </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>harvest and enjoy the fruits of
their labor and sacrifice protecting this kingdoms<BR>Northern most
borders. The Fair of the Harvest shall offer all one might<BR>expect of a fine
Ansteorran celebration and so much more.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><BR>Oh yes there will be fighting, where the bravest may come to test
their<BR>mettle against the best the North has to offer, there will be arts
and<BR>sciences to thrill the eye. There will be bardic to raise the roof of
the<BR>hall, there will be archery, and the hurling of axes..but this is not
all<BR>that Chemin Noir has to offer. There will be an onsite bread
baking<BR>competition where the most period bread could take home the prize.
All<BR>entries must be made without using the camp's kitchen. Imagine the
whole<BR>camp site smelling of fresh baked bread.bread is one the fruits of the
grain<BR>and a sign of a good harvest. The celebration does not end there, the
best<BR>brewer's from all across the Northern Region will gather together at
the<BR>Fair of the Harvest to share the secrets of their art with us all. Again
the<BR>fruit of the grain shall be shared in honor of Chemin Noir and
their<BR>harvest. As the culmination of celebration there will be a fall
harvest<BR>themed feast where your pallet will be satisfied and your belly
comfortably<BR>filled. Chemin Noir has so much to offer it would be a pity not
to attend<BR>and share in the joy that only a small event like this can
provide.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One might fear the autumn chill but not at The Fair of the Harvest
which<BR>boasts a hall with two large blazing fireplaces, not to mention hot
showers,<BR>and of course all the good belly warming drinks of the brewers.
There is<BR>expected to be a lot of singing around the fire mixed with fun,
frivolity,<BR>revelry, and good old Ansteorran camaraderie. So please visit
the<BR>wonderful people of the Canton of Chemin Noir at their Fair of
the<BR>Harvest this weekend (November 9-11) at the Will Rogers Scout Ranch
in<BR>Cleveland Oklahoma. <A
