Greetings All!
 
It is that time of year again that we think about Lionsdale Winterâ??s Tourney.  This year it will be held in Agassiz at the Agassiz Agricultural and Horticultural Hall.  Much larger then last yearâ??s hall!  This year Archery will have it own area. Yaaaaaaa!  Stay tuned for a map and directions coming soon.
 
We will have lots and lots of room for Merchants, sitting, watching and playing area.  So please come and sell your wares, sit and relax, socialize, work on projects enjoy the Tourney and most of all have fun.
 
We will have someone selling a small lunch during the day.  In the evening we will have a wonderful feast.  This year we will have roasted pig, which, Lionsdale is providing as the main dish.  So please bring a side dish for potluck, salad, vegetables, bread, ect. enough to feed 10 people.
 
This year it has been decided that we will be having the Lionsdale Arts and Science Championship at Winterâ??s Tourney.  Arnarr was our last years Champion and will be hosting the Championship this year. The Championship will be accolade style; entrants are encouraged to enter one item of any medium and period for competition.  Documentation is encouraged, but not needed.  Entries will be displayed for perusal.  Gentles may vote for the best work that they feel should win the Championship. Voting shall be done by Gentles placing a favor (1 dry bean), which, will be provided, in the entrants corresponding box. 
 
We will have a Pied Piper during the day. (not a baby sitting service).
 
Lionsdaleâ??s Lord Pierce Oâ??Brian will run a 9 manâ??s Morris tournament during the evening so bring your boards and come out to play.  Sign up with Pierce during the day for the double-elimination tournament.  For more details please contact Pierce.
