Ill omens have
been seen. There is unrest in the Barony. The old Baron and
Baroness have stepped down. The new liege lords have taken their
place, but they are untested.

 

And the Dragon
knows this.

 

From its lair
in the mountains it smells the unease in the Barony, and would
strike at us while we are divided. With razor teeth and fiery
breath it would sunder our lands and destroy our people. Baron
Kraig and Baroness Una call upon their people to unite as one to
face this threat to land and life; to take up arms and defend homes
and children. And they would call upon their people to choose two
champions – a champion of sword, and a champion of arrows
– champions with the strength, courage, and honour to slay
this Dragon and protect the Barony and its people for the year to
come.

 

The omens all
point to a summer battle, therefore Their Excellencies would invite
you to join them, July 5-7 to choose their champions and slay this
encroaching menace.

 

During the day there will be a Heavy Championship; an Archery
Championship; the always popular archery “roving
range”; a rapier tournament; an archery night shoot; youth
combat; youth activities; a thrown weapons tournament; a bardic
tournament, and A&S activities. Royal
Rounds will be run on the field range throughout the weekend for
those wishing to record scores. Due to the mundane rules of the
club, crossbows are not permitted.

 

This year will also see the return of the Heavy Fighter Intro
contest. There will be a prize for the best introduction of a heavy
fighter entering into the Dragonslayer tournament lists. The
fighter does not need to be vying for Champion. Also, on Saturday
night, we will once again hold a Torchlight Charity Tournament.
More details to follow.
