Sept. 5, 6 & 7 ~ Peninsula Longrifle Range, Slab Camp Rd. #2870

---

It is time for the small, but proud Shire of Druim Doineann to take up arms against the Barony of Seagirt. They claim the fish of the waters separating our lands belong to them. WE must defend the right to feed ourselves! We will resolve the dispute through 3 war scenarios, rapier contest, and archery competition. Arts & Science Challenges: Best Belt Favor, Best period-style poem about the War, & competition to be added by Seagirt. Additional information will be found at our website: www.olypen.com/reimer.

Primitive site: bring your own water and firewood. (Wood on site is not ours to use.) No electricity. Each camp should have a shovel/bucket in case of fire. Pets must be on leash & cleaned up after. Discreetly damp site.

Additional Competition Information:

The War of Feast or Famine War Scenarios:

• Champion’s Skirmish: The Champion for each side will start the battle in a one-on-one battle. Each side will cheer their Champion, and jeer the opponent. As soon as a kill happens, all fighters will take the field in an Open Field Battle. When all combatants from one side are killed the scenario ends. This will be a double resurrection.
• “Bloody Hell”: Open field battle with no resurrections. Winner will be determined the same as in the Champion’s Skirmish.
• The Final Scenario will be determined by the Barony of Seagirt.

A & S Competitions:

• Best Favor: Make a token for your fighter, archer, or loved one. Embroider, appliqué, paint — use your imagination!
• Best Period-style poem about the War. Use your favorite poetry style, bonus points for the use of "Shire of Druim Doineann", "Barony of Seagirt" or "fish".
• Final competition to be determined by the Barony of Seagirt.

Special Druim Doineann Prize:
Cooking competition: The theme is, of course, "fish". Annaline of Madrone will be judging and would like documentation to be provided with the dish. She adds, "I like creativity…" The limits of the competition are the limits of your imagination.
