My lords and ladies, pray attend!

The Shire of Hauksgar���°r invites you to join us for a
relaxing day at our 12th annual August in the Park event. Share in
a potluck feast, fight in the tournament, or just relax in the
shade of the big trees if that’s your preference!.

Fees: There is no gate fee…yes, it’s free!

Tournaments:
We will be holding our Heavy Defender’s Tourney to select the
Shield of Hauksgr���°r. All comers are welcome to attempt to
become our defender.

Potluck: Bring your favorite dish to share. We don’t have the
shelter this year, so no crockpots or anything that requires power.
(You can bring a grill if you wish) Please remember that some
people have food allergies so please label with your ingredients.
Bring enough food to feed 10 people or more. Bring your own feast
gear and drinks.

Cascade Locks has a small grocery and several restaurants if you
need food, drinks or snacks for the day. There is a burger
stand/ice cream stop and also a brew pub within easy walking
distance.

There is open, moving water nearby. Please watch your children
carefully.

Bring your own feast gear, drinks and snacks for the day.
Pavilions and dayshades are allowed and encouraged.

If you need a place to stay the night before (or plan to hit the
Pub and need it for after, maybe?), Cascade Locks has three RV
parks/campgrounds and several hotels. The little campground right
there at the Marine park is very nice, and walking distance to
Thunder island Brewing!
