A Call for the Æthelmearc Pennsic Novelty Challenge
Our Archer General is looking for novelty shoots to be created and run during war week at Pennsic! Each day during war week (except for the day of the Champions shoot) we will host a new novelty challenge to run from 9am-11am. We are looking for the groups of Æthelmearc to each host their own novelty to contribute to the challenge.
All novelty challenges should include:
Simple scoring for easy tallying
Targets to shoot at distances between
5 and 20 yards
A prize to be announced and awarded
at the end of their novelties run
Please contact our Archer General, his excellency Baron Edward Harbinger, with any questions or novelty challenges you wish to contribute.

Hello,
The weather radar indicates that the rain has moved off to the east.
So, for those who are willing to get a bit muddy, heavy practice is on.

Due to weather and site being wet. Youth Combat is canceled today. If any youth want to practice before WP, I will be having a practice at my house on Wednesday, May 16th.
Due to weather, thrown weapons practice is cancelled for May 13. Next week is war practice, so come up to Cooper’s and throw with us. SSe you the week after.

Yes, it is Mother’s Day. Yes, it may rain; if it does, we may cancel this week’s A&S. Call me for verification if you wish, I will also post on FB.
FLETCHING!
Tomorrow/Sunday is A&S in BMDL, and this week’s class is on modern fletching, and will be taught by Master Urho Waltterinen. This is only the second time that Urho has taught for us, so please take advantage of this rare opportunity. Because this is a time-consuming process, as we must wait for the glue to dry, we are starting a little earlier than usual at 12:30. All of the jigs, glue, shafts, feathers and all the other things will be brought for us to learn on. Thanks, Urho!!
Location: Washington Boulevard martial practice site Address: Allegheny River Blvd and Washington Blvd. Directions: http://www.debatablelands.org/martial/fight_directions.php Time: 12:30 PM. Weather permitting!
NEW Standard disclaimers here:
We are much more accessible to our less mobile friends, have free parking, and a pet-friendly site. Yay!
However, keep in mind that you should bring everything you need for your comfort including a chair, a beverage or snack, bug spray, sunscreen, hat, cabana boy, musical instruments, boots, sun umbrella, foul weather gear, etc., etc., etc. Also, the site has a porta-john and no running water so please make appropriate preparations.
I will have a table and a jug of water so that you can refill your water bottles or mugs.
If you need assistance or have questions, please call or text me at 724-759-3333.
Thank you for asking! These meetings are free and there is no materials charge, as we are generously supported by the Barony and by those who teach.
Due to the weather predictions for this Sunday (May 13th) we will not be having archery practice.
Next week is War Practice, so we will be up at Coopers Lake for the event. Please come an join us there. (we will not be at Highland Park next week, May 20th)
