William Tell
XXX~ August 28 – 30

  Come
and enjoy our wonderful site, the Wahkiakum County Fair Grounds as
we celebrate the Thirtieth Year of this event.

  We
are again combining our Heavy Champion and Rapier Champion with our
Archery Protector, both Adult and Youth, and Thrown Weapons!! We
will have the dangerous, and challenging Purple Beast that shall
not Be Named contest, as well as other Novelty Shoots. We have been
blessed with this location with a covered arena for Archery so that
we can also have NIGHT SHOOTS!!  There will be a place also
for the Thrown Weapons people to have Night Throws!!

 

There is a
lovely grassy area for the Heavy and Rapier fighter erics!  We
are planning on having a Ladies Gallery to encourage the
contestants.  The ladies gallery will be selected the Best
Deaths and the Most Chivalric Fighters

  SHADE
– YES I SAID SHADE FOR CAMPING!!!!  Water and Electric for
wheeled campers! Indoor Restrooms!!! A shower!!!  Just a short
walk from the Fairgrounds is the Duck Inn, for those that
don’t wish to cook their own meals.

  The
usual Friday night Travelers soup available for a mere
$4.00!!

  Saturday
night there will be a campfire bardic at the permanent fire pit by
the playground, which we invite and encourage all to
participate.  Additional wood burning fire pits are not
allowed by the Fairgrounds.  If you use one to cook on, you
can use charcoal or briquets.

  The
Guillermo da Serra Patace Memorial Bocce Tournament, for the
beautiful ladies of all ages.

  Sunday
morning brings the Scottish Rules Croquet Tournament!!!  Bring
your Bribes! Bring your people! Bring your plaids!!!  HL Magda
will need a few judges so let her know on site if you are available
for this.

 

This
year for the Purple Beast that Shall Not Be Named Tournament the
Contestants shall be required to wear PURPLE in some form!! Extra
points are available for those who bring a new purple beast for
target purposes!!

  We
are also in search of Teachers and Merchants! Please contact HL
Magda at purpleflutterby28@ yahoo.com, if you are
interested in either or both!  The Merchants are also in the
Archery covered area with their camping right next to this. The
only fee is still an item for the prize chest!!

  We
are planning a wonderful event!!! Please come and enjoy a really
fun event!!  River’s Bend is known for wonderful prizes!! All
Archers, Heavies, Rapier, and Throwers – come and
compete!!!
