Event details
Hark, draw near and hear the words of his Excellency of Bergental. His Excellency has seen the rise of riders and their horses within the barony and its surroundings. So pleased is he at the progress of his cavalry that he has determined that it is necessary to hold a tournament to show all and sundry the prowess of his people.
Come and join us for a day of equestrian competition with opportunities for heavy and fencing pickups and thrown weapons range time.
**There will be no dayboard offered. Please bring your picnic baskets!**

Horses and their riders are expected to be on site to park their trailers between 7-8:30 AM before the site opens so that we may park you first and settle your horses. Cars will be parked behind you.
