Time 10am-8:30pm (9:30am for set up crew)
Location:  Richmond Corner Rec Center/Haynes Community Center

This will be a relaxed event, with room for an A&S display/challenge, with a “People’s Choice” winner, who shall be forthnamed “Lyndhaven’s A&S Conquerer” and will be tasked with running the following year’s A&S Challenge (along with wearing of the regalia for the year).  As well, there is room for a class or two, dancing, feasting, playing games or bardic.  Depending on the weather and marshal availability, there may be an opportunity for fighting bearpit style in the parking lot.
A&S Challenge:  Break out your materials.  You have 2&1/2 weeks to complete (or almost complete) a simple project.  Documentation will be bare bones:
What did you make?
Who used it?
How did they use it?
And bonus question What was you experience making this? Mostly completed items accepted.
Dayboard & Feast:  Lunch will be a potluck.  Break out your medieval recipes.  Be sure to include a card with all ingredients (or if bringing something pre-made, be sure to have the original packaging with the ingredient list).
We are offering a Tavern style supper with a couple of pottages (meat/vegan/gluten-free options) and bread/butter/margarine.  If you have food allergies, you MUST contact the autocrat ahead of time, or feel free to bring your own meal.
