Heilsa,

The Clouds of White
Dancing upon canvas of Blue
Wind gentle to moderate
Air felt Triple digits - only 97
While Humidity was mid-range
Gone into history 7 backstops of games
Paths upgrading in progress
A learning of set place arise
 From the grasses

Future Events -

There is a possible War practice prior to
Gothic Wars in August - still in planning stage
at this time.

Gothic Wars:
Labor Day Weekend
September 2nd through 4th
Sweetwater, Texas

Please start drinking extra water several days prior to the day of practice.
This is also true of going to an event, be it SCA related or not.
You will have a better time and enjoy yourself more
if you are hydrate before you start your activity.
Energy drinks may give you a lift, but will not carry you as far,
  when compared to water and gatorade.

Remember - Pace yourself!

Please bring at least 1 gallon or more of water and gatorade. I
recommend 2 gallons of fluids and snacks to replenish your
energy levels if you are in armor and fighting.
Suggested of items you might wish to bring out:
- cold pickles
- oranges - energy bars - etc...
- Bring Chairs for you to sit upon.
- Perhaps a grill to heat snack food
- Dress for the weather
- Sunscreen
- Hats
- Sun pavilions can be set up
