[Ansteorra] Spring Crown Tourney: Early Registration Cut-off approaches

[David Backlin]

Good morning!

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the Early Registration deadline for Gleann Abhann's Spring Crown Tourney in Smythkepe (May 18-20) is this Saturday May 5th. After that, Adult pricing goes up $2.  If you know you'll be in attendance, send in your reservations this week and have an extra $2 for gas money ;)

As of this writing there are still a few cabins spaces left (first come, first served) and plenty of feast, both Above and Below the Salt.  Above the Salt will be served in the feast hall, Below the Salt in the site's picnic shelter (same food!!).  The feast menu will be posted later this week on our webpage: http://smythkepe.org/crown.htm  For those not wanting cabin space, there will be plenty of tenting space available. And if you choose not to partake of our wonderful feast, please remember: it's 15 miles to the nearest Pizza Hut ;)

Oh, and just to clear up a little confusion: the basic site fee includes Traveller's Fare Friday night, plus Breakfast and Lunch on Saturday.

Fees for Crown Tourney are: Adults: $19 ; Children under 12: $9 (deduct $6 for Off-board/No Feast)
Daytrip Rate: Adults: $16; Children under 12: $6 

Pre-reserve discount: Adults deduct $2 if postmarked by May 5, 2007

Make checks payable to SCA Inc-Shire of Smythkepe and mail them to SCA-Smythkepe P.O. Box 5505 Fort Smith, AR 72913

I have also been asked to announce it will be cash only at the door.
