Norse Laerdam Dag, Sept 6 – 8, 2002
Barony of Blatha an Oir
Longbranch Improvement Center

Have you ever asked yourself what a law speaker does for a village?
What are the duties of the chieftain and how are they picked?
What are the rights and privileges of women in the village?
If you have questions come to the Norse Laerdam Dag and find out about these people and many other aspects of the Viking era life. Some crafts and craft how to information are under development.
We encourage as many period tents to set up a Norse village. For those who prefer, the hall is available for sleeping. Pot luck scheduled for Saturday evening. Site opens 5pm Friday, sorry, conflicts with other groups make this late set up necessary.

Site Fee is $8.00, $4.00 for those under age 12. Family cap $24
Directions: From I-5, take highway 16 west to Bremerton, Go across the Narrows Bridge and through Gig Harbor to the Purdy / Key Peninsula exit.
