Greetings to the populace of Ansteorra,

Would you like to attend an event that is....

Relaxing?

Casual?

Fun?

In a Beautiful new Site?

Or How about FREE???

Then the Shire of Tempio would like to invite you to attend their War Camp 
Practice, the testing of a new site...
On October 15-17, 2004
There will be a place for fighting, heavy and light.
There will be space set aside for A&S gathering to share or demonstrate 
your talents
The Dove and Gauntlet Tavern will be available for your dining enjoyment 
for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a small fee.
Merchants are welcome...
And best of all....NO GATE FEE, although site registration and wavier 
requirements will still be in place...
All this will be in the beautiful new setting of Camp Arrowhead with plenty 
of lovely scenery, lots of camping space, and 75 acres of trails and 
wonders to explore.

Details below.....

Site will be open friday evening and close early afternoon on Sunday.
Site registration "Gate" will be at the "turn of the road".  Sign up and 
wavier requirements will be required of all participants although there is 
NO SITE FEE.  Parking after registering at gate will be in the field just 
inside the fence.

Site is primitive but has potable water and portable privies.  There is 
lots of camping space.

Heavy and Light fighting has been scheduled in two blocks for Saturday the 
16th.  Armor inspection will be at any time in those two blocks.
Times are:  9 am to 12 noon &  2 pm to 5 pm

All other activities are at the leisure of whomever wants to gather to 
share and talk.

The Tavern will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner on Saturday with 
breakfast on Sunday.  Prices are $2.00 for breakfast which will consist of 
pancakes and breakfast sandwiches.  Lunch and dinner will be also $2.00 
each and will consist of a choice of stew, soup, bread and sausages.  A 
more definite menu will be available on site.

Directions to site, 2 ways:

1.  Coming from the north or south on IH-35, to Belton, TX, take the 6th 
street exit and proceed west on 6th street until intersecting with Hwy 
317.  Turn (north) right, and proceed a couple of miles to the intersection 
of Sparta Rd and 317.  Turn (west) left onto Sparta Rd and continue  on 
Sparta Rd for approximately 7 miles, pass over a cattleguard and the road 
will turn into North Nolanville Rd.  Look for Camp Arrowhead sign on your 
left.  Turn left at the sign, and continue straight to the gate.  THERE ARE 
NO SECURITY CHECKPOINTS TO GO THROUGH, the site is outside of the security 
perimeter of Fort Hood.  If you reach BLORA you've gone too far.

OR...
 From I-35 take 6th St. exit.  Proceed west to 317, turn north (right) on 
317, proceed 2 miles to FM 439.  Turn west (left) on 439.  Proceed to 
intersection of 439 and Sparta Rd, turn right (west).  Follow above 
directions from there.

The fine print:

Minors under the age of 18 may attend with an adult and a signed and 
notarized copy of the minor event waiver form.  The site is wet in period 
containers.  Pets are allowed with current rabies papers and leash.  No 
horse will be allowed.  Ground fires will be permitted if there is no burn 
ban in effect.
