On-line Heraldic Office Hours are back!

Greetings from your Comet Pursuivant!

On-line heraldic office hours are back and on a new day! Thursday, September 6th, from 7pm-9pm I will be on-line to answer your heraldic questions or discuss heraldic topics of your choosing. Other heralds are most welcome to join in! I will post a link for the Google chat a few minutes before 7.

These office hours will now occur on the first and third Thursdays of the month. Come on and join the heraldic hubbub!

Brewers Guild – Monthly Meeting This Wednesday

Greetings everyone!

The Brewers Guild has been very busy of late between brewing for Pennsic and last week’s demo at the Children’s Museum.  We are now looking ahead to fall and winter events.

Join us tomorrow night (Wednesday, September 5) at 7pm at Job’s house in Penn Hills as we work on a wine for Twelfth Night and plan for other upcoming events.  Please bring a beverage (your own or not) that you would like to share and discuss with the group.

If you have any questions, need additional details, or want to be added to our email list, please feel free to contact me at alisonlsteele@gmail.com

Cheers!

Youth Combat Practice

It is going to be a heat index of over 93° this afternoon. I will be at youth practice this afternoon but please use your best judgement for your little one. If you are coming to youth practice, please bring plenty of cold water and other items to keep them cool.
There will be no Youth combat practice next Sunday as I have an event I will be at and not make it home in time for practice that Sunday.
Thank you
Jasmine

Thrown weapons cancelled for this week.

Konichiwa Debatable Lands!! I will not be holding practice tomorrow. Moving this weekend has gotten the better of me physically, and I’m not really in a position at the moment to present a proper range. I will be having practice next week, weather permitting. Sorry for the late notice, but I was holding out hope I could be there this week.

Archery Practice/expect heavy traffic

Please note it is free zoo day! Traffic near the practice site is going to be crazy heavy. I advise if you are coming to practice you come early. Wait times in traffic towards the zoo can be up to 2+ hrs wait. We are on that path.

Archery is on for this Sunday tomorrow! (September 2nd)

Join us at Highland Park 11am-2pm for some great Archery.  Loaner equipment is available, first come first served.

A and S — Cancelled — Sunday, Sep 2

This weekend is the Labor Day holiday weekend, and many of us are celebrating, so there will be no A&S this weekend.

There were so many people interested in fiber arts at the demo at the Children’s Museum, that I will be at Washington Blvd *next* Sunday with an inkle loom and fingerloop braiding, just in case we get visitors. Anyone else doing fiber-y goodness is welcome to join me so we can share our enthusiasm with everyone. I will put out an announcement next week as a reminder.

Meanwhile, have a wonderful Labor Day!

The SCA is devoted to the research and re-creation of pre-seventeenth century skills, arts, combat, culture, and employing knowledge of history to enrich the lives of participants through events, demonstrations, and other educational presentations and activities.

The Board of Directors wishes to thank everyone who took the time to write in with their comments for the betterment of our society.
