Fight practice August 26

Hello,
Weather permitting, there will be fight practice at the Washington Blvd site on August 26 from 2 til 6 PM. Loaner armor will be available.
Count Andreas is planning to attend, so if you would like to cross swords with him here is your chance.
I believe the trailers are still in the parking lot, but there should be plenty of parking for us.
I hope to see you there.

Kudos to the Barony from the Laurel Principal Queen of Arms

I received the following missive from Master Alaric MacConnell today and wanted to share this with the entire Barony:

I wanted to share some cool recognition from the July 2018 Board Meeting President’s Report.

Here are the relevant excerpts:

Commendations

I would like to commend Alaric MacConnal, Raven Whiteheart, and the rest of the staff of this year’s Known World Heraldic Symposium, held in Pittsburgh, PA, June 8-10. It was a great time and well attended. You guys set a high bar for others to match.

Publishable Summary

The 2018 Known World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium was held in Pittsburgh, PA, in the Barony Marche of the Debatable Lands. Alaric Mac Connal and Raven Whiteheart did great work as event stewards; the entire Barony was welcoming. We’ll be talking about the reception at the castle and the performances for a long time.

Thank you to everyone that made Known World Heralds and Scribes such a success. We should be proud of how we represented the Barony to the Known World during this event.

Fight Practice August 19

Hello,
Weather permitting, there will be fight practice on Sunday August 19, from 2 until 6 PM at the Washington Blvd site. Loaner armor will be available.
Please be aware that there are a number of large white trailers taking up over half of the parking lot.  If you can carpool to practice, it would be helpful.
Hope to see you there.

Thrown weapons practice cancelled

Konichiwa Debatable Lands! Unfortunately, I will be cancelling practice this week. And it has nothing to do with parking. Post pennsic week has exceptionally difficult, and, well, I’m out of spoons. So in the interest of self preservation, and at the encouragement of loved ones, I will be taking this week off, and be back at it next week. Until then, takes care of yourselves out there.
