Vinfest XIV in Vinjar

 

Please come join us on the weekend of
September 22, for one last camping event under the gold of our
aspens and tamarack. If camping is not desired, a limited number of
bunks in cabins are available.

Travelers are welcomed to the site on Friday
evening with a meet and greet at troll followed by snacks and
visiting in the hall.

Saturday sees many activities planned.
Breakfast and Lunch will be available on site for a small fee.
Target archery pretty much goes all day. There are tournaments
planned for heavy, combat archery, rapier and youth. An Arts and
Sciences competition and display will take place in the hall over
the course of the day. Our tournaments are open to all. However, to
become a Vinjar champion, the winner must be a member of the
SCA.

During the middle of the afternoon, the
populace will be invited to join in the pressing of the grapes.
Revelers have been known to sing and dance while the grapes squish
between their toes.

Many merchants will be on site for your
shopping pleasure.

Saturday evening will see a wondrous feast
prepared by Emily the Surf and her staff. Court will follow as the
evening progresses.
