Subject: [Steppes] Final schedule for All-CON demo on March 7, 8, and
9th
OK, I've gotten enough questions about the rates for tickets and the
schedules that I'm posting the rate information, and reposting the
updated schedule.
Single day passes are $15, full-convention passes are $25. If you have
your
blue or white SCA MEMBERSHIP CARD, you will get a $5 discount off of
either
pass. Black Star labels, newsletters, etc, are not acceptable proof of
membership
for the convention staff. They WILL be checking expiration dates, as
well. We
are the ONLY group that they are giving a discount to, so please be
prepared
when you buy your ticket and treat the staff with courtesy for this very
nice
benefit. There will be a Convention member who is also SCA who will be
doing
the checkin at the ticket booth.
Those of you who are getting passes for participation from me will be
contacted privately. I will have all the passes, and will locate myself
or a
designated replacement where you can pick them up. There will be space
to put in your
SCA or mundane name, whichever you prefer. Unless you are bringing A&S
for
display, or fighting gear, or materials for a demo, please limit the
amount of
"stuff" you bring. Our booth is only 8x8, with some additional space for
storage, and we have use of the demo rooms ONLY during the times of our
demos, so
that we may not use them for storage.

REMEMBER: CONVENTION TIME IS NOT SCA TIME! DEMOS MUST START ON TIME!
Schedule:
Setup on Friday starts at 11a.m. The vendor room opens for business at 3
p.m., and the booth must be ready and staffed by that time. The doors
close at 10
p.m.
Our first demo is at 6 p.m., which will be an overview of "Life in the
New
Middle Ages". At this time, it looks as if I will be presenting this
demo.
Our first fighting demo is at 7 p.m. and basically goes until nobody is
willing to fight anymore or until 2 a.m. I'm still waiting for
additional
volunteers for this demo, although I know a few people attending the
convention for the
entire weekend were planning on participating.
Doors open on Saturday to the vendor room at 9 a.m. for vendors ONLY. We
can
come in and get the booth ready again, and the doors open to the
convention in
general at 11 a.m. They close at 6 p.m. to the convention public.
Our first demo is at 10 a.m. I do not yet have a decision on this demo.
Our first fighting demo is at 11 a.m. with HRM Aaron opening a
mini-tourney
in the Chinaberry Room, and will continue until 4 p.m.
Our next demo is at 2 p.m., and will feature Her Grace Willow de Wisp on
Bardcraft, It's History and Place in Society
Our last demo of the day is at 6 p.m. and will feature Her Grace Valeria
teaching and showing Medieval Games.
Doors open on Sunday to the vendor room at 9 a.m. again, for vendors
ONLY.
Again the convention in general will be allowed in at 11 a.m. Doors will
close
for tear down at 4 p.m.
Our first demo is a fighting demo at 10 a.m. - noon. Because fighters
will be
leaving for Gulf War, I'm hoping we can still manage to field both heavy
and
light fighters at this demo.
Our last demo is going to be at 1 p.m., and is a Fashion Show of Period
Costumes, both men and women -- I hope! We have the main stage, and I
would love to
see some of our gorgeous court costumes come out and be seen. this
includes
both early and late period costumes, too. We will need a commentator who
is not
modeling their costume on stage, as well.
If someone would please bounce this missive to the Elfsea and Glaslyn
lists,
I would appreciate it.
I wish to express my appreciation to everyone who has volunteered to
come out
and participate. We had such a good time last year that I am hoping that
this
year will continue in Faelan's excellent footsteps.
I know I'm forgetting something -- I always do, even though I used to be
known a Listmaker!
