Steward; Sergeant Galath ab
Edwin (galathabedwin@gmail.com)

Come support those members of
Lions Gate’s populace as they challenge for the rank of Sergeant,
Yeoman, Gallant, or Courtier. Have a chance to see our Equestrian
riders challenge themselves with a brand new rank, the
demonstration rank of lancer. There are a number of challengers
this year, they will appreciate your kind word, piece of pie, or
readiness to be lead. Challenge yourself with the questions each
candidate must know for heraldry, strategy, games, dance! These are
our future, or current leaders, join them in a truly formative
experience. Or just enjoy a day, perhaps with games, archery, or a
picnic with good friends. Bring a song or story to share around the
Bardic fire! Learn a dance! Fight in the unbelted
tourney!

The Grene Wode is a
delightful location for our Barony to gather and share a pivotal
moment in peoples lives. Rainbows, sunshine, quiet joy, and riotous
fun can be had by all camping for the weekend.

Candidates:

All Candidates Must Attend
Opening Court Saturday Morning bring your device! The Baroness
should already have your written application in hand.

Testing for some areas will
be done by designated testers, but the input of the populace is
important and welcome. Combat testing will welcome participation by
heavies, rapiers and archers. Dancing is better with greater
numbers, and a bardic test without an audience is a
shame.

Members of the populace will
be heard in the Sunday morning circle discussions, as the personal
qualities of the applicants are examined. Or contact the Baroness
directly if you can not attend. 

Merchant space will be
available no charge – bring your own tables please. Contact the
Stewards.
