Yes, please. This type of class will need a limit on its size. Sign-up
for classes starts at 8am, the day before. I often have trouble getting
there before such sheets fill up. And I would want to take all of
these, I think.

Yes, leave plenty of time to experience the other parts of Pennsic.
I taught two classes last year, each one scheduled for two hours
but taking longer. That and the preperation for them can really
take a fair amount of time.

Do you know who you will be camping with? I hope you will find
your way down to the SPCA camp, down near the lake at least once.
For some info on Pennsic, you might want to take a look at some
of the files in the PENNSIC section of the Florilegium. Besides
the usual info files, there are also some story files which are
just plain fun and amusing:
P-stories-msg     (65K)  9/ 8/99    Pennsic stories.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/PENNSIC/P-stories-msg.html
P-tale-MWIFO-art  (23K)  8/26/96    Making Wrought Iron from Ore at Pennsic 24.

You might also find these files in the EDUCATION section useful when
thinking about your class:
teaching-msg      (21K)  2/14/00    Teaching in the SCA and in persona.
http://www.florilegium.org/files/EDUCATION/teaching-msg.html
Teach-in-SCA-art  (16K) 12/26/00    "On Teaching Classes in the SCA" by Lady
