It is time to shake off the chill of winter and join with
friends for a day of revelry and feasting.  Please join the
Canton of Silverhart on February 22, 2014 for our annual winter
Feast of Fools!  In keeping with this tradition there will be
a Lord and Lady of Misrule declared.  Enjoy a day of
merriment!

There will be heavy fighting and a rapier tourney.  Armor
inspection will be at 11:30 AM with fighting to follow as soon as
inspections are done.  There will also be an arts &
science populace choice competition “A&S Gone Wrong” (bring
your best A&S misadventure), and a food competition producing
“Subtleties” (a food or dessert item disguised to appears as
something completely different).  We will wrap up the event
with a feast of merriment with bardic as our entertainment!

To keep you entertained for the day:

*  5 competitions; heavy, rapier, A & S, food, and games
with the entry fee for each competition being a contribution of
canned food collected for the Coeur d’Alene Food Bank.

*  Populace choice competitions in A&S (objects and
food)

*  Court dancing with Mistress Juliana 

*  An evening court

*  A feast of merriment (with Bardic as our entertainment)

The feast hall can only hold 100 so please pre-register for the
feast ASAP by emailing cybernicus@earthlink.net with
the number of gentles and first names of each in your party.

Update: As of 2/17 we are booked for the feast, and
taking wait list names.

When you register you will get an email confirmation back within 48
hours.  If you do not get a confirmation back please recontact
to confirm!

The Canton is providing the meat for the feast and the populace
in attendance is asked to bring a potluck side dish that will feed
5-10 to accompany the feast.

Pot luck dishes by modern last name:

**A-G bring salads**

**H-P bring side dishes**

**Q-Z bring desserts**

In keeping with our Feast of Fools theme, we will start by having
dessert first!

PLEASE be sure to note if your food dish contains anything
others may be allergic to…we will be providing materials onsite
to write the notes. We have some people with extreme food allergies
so this is important.

There will be a silent auction table at this event, with all funds
raised going toward biffies at Sgts.

Be sure to bring some extra small bills for the “pie in the face”
fundraiser, where various victims (including our most esteemed
“knight to be” Baron Lars) are graciously being pressed into
service to help raise money for the Silverhart dragonwing.
