[Lady saviti]

Good new for those who have found the SCA or who are
about to find it (can we say Highland Games?)

Elfesa is having a newcomers revel in Ft. Worth so
that those who would like to see what we do and all
kinds of hands on A&S activities. I have a sign up
list for those who are intrested in helping out and
showing folks how "they used to do this" and all kinds
fun activities.


Here is what all is being offered.....


Outside there should be three camps set up if
possible. One period  camp, one half mundane and half
period and one mundane camp.

Station 1 costuming manikin with elaborate gown,
patterns, fabric samples, looms both table and inkle.
Drop spindle and spinning wheel with examples of wool,
linen and other natural fibers, dyes and tools used to

I am open for what we are doing for the open spaces. I
would like to see a quest for children and other fun
things geared for kids.


Yes, this is opposite Lindenwoods masked ball but the
newcomers will be gone just after 6 and as soon as
things are tidy I plan on heading over to the ball as
quickly as possible! I have very fond memories of that
event and am looking forward to joining in.

I am in need of a deputy or two, three,
four....(chuckle) to help make this run smooth. THis
is a great opportunity for one to get their feet wet
running this kind of venue.

Please contact me off list (till I can figure out why
I am not getting list email) so I can see where things
are.

Till later.....
Brigit
