The Known World's Youngest Kingdom invites heralds, scribes, 
scholars, and those who want to learn to the 2006 Known World 
Heraldic and Scribal Symposium. Come to the verdant River Valley to 
celebrate the heraldic and scribal arts.

The event will be held at the Four Points by Sheraton New Orleans 
(www.fourpointsneworleans.com) in Metarie, Louisiana – a short 
distance to the French Quarter and other area attractions. Shuttle 
service may be available from the Louis Armstrong International 
Airport in Kenner to the hotel. There is free parking at the hotel. 
A rate of $82 a night has been negotiated for the event – please 
call (504) 885-5700 and ask for the SCA rate.  

There will be a meet and greet Friday night at the hotel, classes 
during the day on Saturday, and the ever popular Laurel Roadshow 
Sunday morning. Instead of a traditional feast, you may choose to 
dine at one of the New Orleans area's many great and famous eateries 
with fellow Symposium attendees.  A field trip is in the works for 
non-heralds for Sunday morning – check
