> Call for Teachers and Presenters: Cook's Symposium 2002
>
> *Tentative*  Date: Saturday, December 14, 2002
> Location: Metro-Detroit, Michigan (Barony of Roaring Wastes, Middle
Kingdom)
>
> The Barony of Roaring Wastes invites you to join cooks, researchers,
> farmers, herbalists, toolmakers, food aficionados, gourmands and
> interested bystanders in metro-Detroit, Michigan to a Cook's
> Symposium tentatively scheduled for December 14th, 2002. Normally
> held in the Shire of Starleaf Gate in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, this
> year's Symposium will be held across the US border in metro-Detroit.
>
> We would specifically like to invite you to present a class or
> exhibit at this year's Symposium. We are planning to have a a track
> of classes for attendees with little to no prior knowledge about
> particular subjects and a track for more in-depth and detailed
> coverage of topics, though not necessarily requiring extensive
> experience. Classes in both these tracks are typically 1 hour long,
> though some hands-on classes may run as long as 2 hours.
>
> The expected cutoff date for finalizing the class list has been
> tentatively set for November 1st, 2002. As of this writing, the final
> event date of December 14th has not been confirmed with the site;
> thus, we are waiting to post the information to the Kingdom calendar.
> However, we are hoping to begin soliciting teachers and presenters
> now to begin advertising proposed classes in the near future and
> continue the amazing attendance increases the previous three
> Symposiums have seen.
>
> Not sure what or  how you should teach? Previous classes have
> included presentations on feasts in the Middle Kingdom, humoral
> theory classes, hands-on classes working with marzipan, practice
> classes for menu writing, classes on cooking without modern
> conveniences, period sausage making, and restaurants in period china.
>
> Don't let your imagination stop there. Why not consider a sampling
> class of various version of particular recipes, or a class on spoon
> carving, making spice collections for various cultures, clay pot
> throwing, garden plant and tree care, herb identification, clothing
> for the medieval cook, hair-styling for the period and modern cook,
> mundane food safety regulations and guidelines, food served to
> celebrate death, famous cooks and what they wrote. The possibilities
> are truly endless.
>
> For additional information, for help deciding on a topic to teach,
> for gentle nudges and encouragement, or simply to volunteer, please
> contact
