Odin’s calling! Today’s the
day;
Asatru
man’s gonna fight today.

Nightfall’s coming, don’t wanna miss the
war,
Kill ’till you can’t kill no
more!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It’s that time of year again! Odin is calling,
it’s time to play!
The Valkyries have returned, and once again Odin’s Own will be
chosen. 
Do you have what it takes to become Odin’s Chosen? 
Games of Strength, heavy fighting, archery … even an A&S
Contest!  The All
Father will watch it all!

Come and join Lionsdale for
a weekend of Viking fun and frivolity.  No seriousness allowed
here! 

Please note, there will be a potluck dinner,
please bring enough food to feed 10 people.  The Shire of
Lionsdale will provide the main meat, but more is always
