<p></p><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div>A fond greeting to my fellow Shire-members,<br><br>This email is going to inform you about a fantastic Activity Day I'm planning for June 11th, 2011.<br>
The day is centered around three activities: Archery, Dance, and Bardic. Garb is highly recommended, but I won't be following people around with spare tunics, slipping them on you like that man who stands backstage with a shepherd's crook. <br>
<br>(1) Archery will run from 10am-1pm (or until we get tired and hungry) at the Austin Colony Park archery range. I plan to talk to our local marshal and see if we can't set up a fun shoot or two. Bring sunscreen!!<br>
<br>At that point, we'll break for lunch. I considered planning a picnic in the park. However, noting that it's going
to be past noon in June, I expect the appeal of air conditioning and iced drinks to tip that decision scale for us. <br><br>(2) European Dance practice will be held from 3pm-6pm in the Zachary foyer. I've asked several instructors (Antonello, Peronelle, among them) from out of town to join us, so there will be lots of room and lots of dances to learn. Don't worry, we reserved the foyer, so as long as it doesn't turn into a blacklight rave, no one will be able to ask us to leave. The shire dancers are fantastically good at providing training wheels for new dancers, so "I don't know the dance" or "I can't dance well" are NOT valid reasons not to come. <grin><br>
<br>Once we're tired from dancing , we will retreat to Rhodri and Kaitlyn's (or the nearest shower, if that's your fancy) for a potluck dinner.<br><br>(3) Bardic will begin around 7pm or around when we've found our way to empty plates and comfortable
seats. It will last...until we can't keep our eyes open any longer. The first hour to and hour and a half will be primarily instructive. I've asked Master Ihon and Honorable Lord Andrew Scarhart to be the leading bards for the evening. We'll begin with the songs "every ansteorran should know," rounds, and lots of group songs. There was a lot of interest in madrigal songs at war, so we'll be doing those, too. Once the songs are learned, or the liquids take effect, whichever occurs first, we'll dim the lights and open up the floor for whatever songs you'd like. Preferably period or period-like, but I won't complain if it's just something fun. I'll contact Ihon and Scarhart when the day gets closer and make sure there are lyrics available for as many of the songs, if not all, as possible.<br>
<br>These activities are available for anyone. The archery and dance will be an official Shire practice (I've
checked with the marshal/guild leader), so loaner bows, arrows, and tabbards will be available to use. [i.e. you have no excuse not to come!] Carpooling will be a must. No need to park ten cars in the campus garages for dance if we don't have to. I'd like to rely on local drivers to volunteer to get out-of-towners to where they need to be, be it showers, restaurants, parks, or homes. But, those details we'll work out as the day gets closer.<br>
<br>To summarize: Save the date for June 11th, and be here in Shadowlands. The Shire is going to shoot, dance, and sing until we can't stay awake any longer. It will be a day of fun, friends, and learning for all of us.<br>
<br>I hope to see you there!<br><br>--kolfinna in kyrra ottarsdottir<br>Shadowlands Rapier marshal<br>Shadowlands Exchequer<br><br></div>
