“The Celts are revolting! The Celts are revolting!” Once again war
cries sound in the Barony of Wealdsmere. With the advent of the
warmth spring comes news from beyond our borders, the Celts have
once again set their sights on our fair land, and they are making
their way here intent on war, thieving, and plunder.  The
Celts are revolting, and the Baron is calling for fighters to
assist in the defense of the Barony.

 

 

Once more, Wealdsmere is proud to accept the Hospitality of HL Sgt.

NEW INFORMATION:

 

Bardic Champion’s Tourney:

A&S Champion’s
Tourney:

Here is the
information the Tourney for those who are preparing their
entries:

There will be
three divisions for the entries:

1. Beginnger,
   which will require no documentation other than to be able to verify
   that the art was in existence in period.
2. Intermediate,
   which will have documentation and is for people who have never won
   A&S contests before.
3. Experienced,
   for people who have won contests before and who are ready to be
   held to the highest scrutiny.

 

In the spirit
of fun and a love of pickled foods, Her Excellency, Baroness Kara,
will be holding a competition for the best pickled fruit,
vegetable, and/or protein.  All pickled food items must have
been prepared by the person entering the competition.  All
persons wishing to enter should bring either one large unopened jar
or two small unopened jars of the item/items they are entering.
 Entries will be judged on taste, texture, and appearance with
additional points being given for unique display of the entry.
 So bring your best pickled food, and see if you can win the
pickling prize!

Subtlety Contest:

Do you have
an interest in medieval cooking?  Have you always wanted to
make food that looks like something else?  Well, here is your
chance.  Subtleties took a wide range of forms throughout the
period from simply vividly colored foods (like frumenty) to more
elaborate displays representing allegorical, mythological, or
historical events (e.g. models of castles, cooked meats redressed
to look like the animal they originated from).  Entrants
must include a list of ingredients with their entry.
 Documentation is not required for this contest, but you can
present it with your entry if you so choose.

Siege Cooking Contest:

Silent Auction:

A silent
auction will be held at Celtic Revolt as a fundraiser for the
Barony’s Sergeants Trials.  The auction is being hosted by the
Grand Bazaar on Merchant’s Row.  Bidding will begin after
morning Court on Saturday, and it will close just prior to Closing
Court on Sunday.  Anyone wishing to donate an item to be
placed in the silent auction is encouraged to contact the event’s
Merchant Coordinator.  His contact information can be found
