<P>It's two and a half weeks until the demo, I thought I would go ahead and get a start on finding out who can come out and participate. All are invited; fighters, artists, bards, everyone...</P>
<P> </P>
<P>By the way, in addition to the large stage in the downstairs community room there is also a small "storytime" stage in the children's area on the first floor.</P>
<P> </P>
<P><GDWILKERSON@EARTHLINK.NET>>I have heard from the library and the downstairs community room is confirmed reserved for our use. This is a large room with a stage at the back and the one in which I have been having the occasional combined baronial indoor rapier practices. I originally thought of reserving it for the fighters in case of inclement weather, but the space is also excellent for bardic performances, musical performances, dance displays, etc. <BR>> <BR>>So, to all the bards, musicians, dancers - if the weather is nice and the fighters are all outside... <BR>> <BR>>>The next annual Medieval Days Demo at the Central Branch of the Arlington Public Library will be Saturday, October 31. The library hours are from 9 to 6, so I expect the demo will run from 10ish to 5ish. <BR>>> <BR>>>Artisans, please come and display and demonstrate your crafts. <BR>>> <BR>>>Fighters, consider this an opportuity for an all day fighter practice. I have reserved the downstairs community room so that we may fight indoors if the weather is inclement. <BR>>> <BR>>>Musicians and dancers, come and play, sing, and demonstrate your art. <BR>>> <BR>>>This is now Elfsea's largest, and longest running annual demo. Please come and help make it another success, as it has been for several years now. <BR>>> <BR>>>Thank you. <BR>>> <BR>>>Don Alaric Greythorne</P></BODY>
