The main reason is that we weren't getting much attendance at fighter
practice where it was. People would drop by, not see anything going on
and leave. As more time went on, less people would come by because
they would figure no one else would be out there and it would be a
wasted trip. Right now, we have an active archery and rapier practice
with a good number of people showing up every weekend. My hope is that
we will reach a critical mass of chivalric fighters to have a regular
heavy practice as well. We have also had quite a bit of interest in
combat archery, and this will allow us to have combined practices. In
the beginning, if there aren't very many heavy fighters, there will
still be people there to talk to and hopefully people will still
consider it worth the effort to come out. If we get enough fighters
and they want to move it back to the park, that is fine by me, I just
want to see it grow. Muriel and I are planning on spreading the word
to all the fighters in the area, and giving rides to those college
students without transportation.<br>
<br>
I remember the days of fighter practice in Andrews Park where a good
portion of the Barony would come out, and I would like to see us get
back to that. This is an attempt to work towards that. If it doesn't
work, we can always try something else.<br>

type="cite">Hey guys what was the reasoning behind this decision to
move chivalric practice ? I thought the main reason we were were out at
reeves park was so people could see us and that it was convenient as it
was the park that Med Fair was out at. Is this just a temporary thing
or is this a permanent change? I personally do not think this is a
good idea. People have got used to reeves park, and they know where to
find us. People will get in their cars and run by the park to see if
anyone is there, and if they see no one there they will think there is
no practice. Tarl <br>

those who missed the meetings, the chivalric, archery, and rapier<br>
practices will be at the same time and roughly the same place. [Putting<br>
them in exactly the same place would be too dangerous, of course.]<br>
<br>
So, Sundays at 3 p.m., join us at the same place the revel was held for<br>
Queen's Champion. That is 19300 SE 149th Street, Newalla, OK 74857-5307<br>

depending on where you start. Turn right (east) on S.E. 149th St. (E.<br>
Stella Rd.) and continue for 13.1 miles. The entrance is quite<br>
immediately past Red Oak Lane on the south side.<br>
<br>
Stella Road is also S.E. 19th in Moore.<br>
<br>
I'll try to have a map up on the baronial website soon. See you Sunday!<br>
