This is a Level 2: Branch Event where no Kingdom or Principality business is expected to be conducted event.
On Memorial Day weekend, Blatha an Oir again combines three events to bring people together from across the Kingdom in their passions and interests. We are hosting Embers and Ambrosia, Celtic Bardic, and Daffodil Archery at the Swiss Sportsmen’s Club the weekend of May 23-26, 2025.
Activities will include
Torchlight Tourney Friday night (subject to marshal availability)
Rapier and Cut and Thrust tourneys Saturday
Archery, including the Daffodil Tourney!
Thrown Weapons!
Classes – food, bardic, martial, scribal, and more 🙂
Demo area to chat with folks making things, cooking food, and maybe even try your hand at making something
There are 3 baronial championships open to participation – Bardic, Arts & Sciences on Saturday and the Shield of the Barony on Sunday.
Merchants 🙂
After Saturday evening court, there will be a potluck in the hall. Two hearty soups/stews will be there for a start – both GF, one with meat, and one vegetarian. Please label foods for discrete allergy maintenance and remember a serving utensil. 🙂
(Since we do have the hall, there will be space to set up a crock pot, or hold foods cold until after Court)
Unless you are going to assist with setting up pavilions or a merchant needing to set up, gate opens at 3 pm on Friday. If you are assisting with set up, you are allowed on site at noon, but you will need to be setting up the baronial areas before setting up your personal encampment.
With 2 small play areas for smaller children and a mix of indoor and outdoor activities, this is a great option to possibly bring friends to see what this is all about.
Hope to see you there!
