“The
Legend of Cú Chulainn”
Almost 2000 years ago, a Hero arose among the men of
Ulster. His Ferocity
and Skill at Arms would earn him the name of “The Irish
Achilles”. This
Memorial Day Weekend, come and walk in the steps of Setanta, He who
would come to be known as Cú Chulainn, the Hound of
Ulster.
As in the previous 2 years, Wealdsmere is proud to
accept
the Hospitality of HL Sgt. Michael of Lancaster on his private
property in Northwest Spokane County. There is a massive two-story
Tower for both Heavy and Rapier to play with, with a new series of
walls for your Siege Enjoyment. Even better, there is a HUGE
piece of land adjacent to the property that belongs to the
Department of Natural Resources and is available for our
use. And who knows
what new improvements will be made to the ever expanding Fortress
Complex? Baron Caieth
will be doing the fight-o-crating based on Irish History –
come learn something while you whack your
friends!
Rules

ensure written documentation is provided; bibliographies are a
definite plus. One excellent, well crafted and documented entry is
better that multiple entries without references. There will
also be a verbal presentation of the entries by the
candidates, as it is important to be able to tell people about what
you did, how you did it, and why, etc. Items cannot have
been entered into a previous Barony of Wealdsmere Championship or
won a prize at any prior competition.
Champions are required to swear an oath to the Baron and Baroness
