[Bordermarch] A&S Day

[Phocas of Bordermarch]

Yeah!!!  Yes, it is about time for another A&S day.    I will teach a class
on flute making.  I have a nice supply of dried bamboo already.

Subject: [Bordermarch] An Interesting Idea:

Greetings Populace of the Great Barony Bordermarch!

As many have been asked and have answered, I, your new Herald, have offered
to co-host a Basic Heraldry and Submissions Process class for all
interested.  Knowing that so many work long and hard to earn your site fees,
it has been agreed upon to schedule a class for a weekend when the weather
is less inclement.  While pondering this, it occurred, simultaneously, to HE
Elizabeth, HE Therese, m'Lord Atli (our brand new MoAS!) and myself...that
we haven't had a good old fashioned A&S Day in YEARS!  (18 mos at this
writing, in fact).
So how about it?  HE Therese's backyard is absolutely lovely in early March,
BEFORE Gulf War, and she has generously offered its use to any who would
partake.  The best date put forward is the weekend of March 5/6, although
neither Saturday nor Sunday has been set in stone.  A few different classes
are already beginning to take shape: besides heraldry, HE AmberLea will be
having a Sing-A-Long, Atli is trying to decide between something involving
chainmail and/or his new shield press, Chrestien may be tracking down the
means for a marshaling class, and there are a few more ideas percolating
among us as well.
If you have any ideas for classes you'd like taught or you'd be willing to
teach, please let me or Atli (James Wickham) know!  I'm spearheading this
venture, but only from desperation...I *really* like taking classes!  I'd
also love to combine this with fighter practice and a newcomer's revel, so
spread the word as far as you can for new folks, too.  We can arrange
carpooling if necessary, probably do something pot-luck and share a meal
together, all those wonderful things we love to do as a group when given
half a chance.  Any group chores that might need accomplished, like banner
painting, repair work on armor or weapons, should also be considered.  Many
hands make lightest work.
HE Therese's house is limited of indoor space, but her backyard is wondrous
to behold!  So think of some outdoors-y type classes that we might arrange,
bring your chairs, and set aside a day of that weekend to visit with your
closest neighbors before the men head off to war!

More will be mentioned at Populace, 27 Jan. and hopefully a definite date
decided upon and details ironed out.  See you all soon!

different things.' *
