St. Eligius A&S Event: Details and New Challenges
Submitted by R.Wurm, Barony of Dragonship Haven
Greetings Everyone
St. Eligius is right around the corner and Dragonship Haven is so excited! Queen Anna is honoring us with Her Presence, plus we have some new challenges and special competitions.
New this year are the Baron Adhemar Challenges: Misadventures and Collaboration. Sound intriguing? Go to the Baronial Website or our East Kingdom event listing to find out more and for all other competition information.
Other specialized contests include; Master Alexander the Younger’s Challenge, SCA Kluge, Medieval Moment and Artisan’s Progress, and we will have our Populace and Baron & Baroness’s Choice awards, as always.
St. Eligius is designed to have something for everyone; great food, great prizes, great company and great fun! We pride ourselves on our unique and diverse judging formats and our friendly and supportive atmosphere where all entrants, displayers, and onlookers will feel comfortable, encouraged, and go home feeling enthused and delighted! Also, St Eligius is a good place to hone and get feedback on your entry for the upcoming King and Queen’s Arts and Sciences Competition.
Don’t feel like entering a competition? Please bring the project that you have been working on, finished or not. We want to see it and have plenty of tables for display only.
We are pleased to announce that there will be fencing, lots of it, with at least 2 tourneys. Since fencing is an art, we can’t leave it out of our A&S day. Lord Christoffel will be running “The Art of Fence Challenge”; pick your favorite period fencing master and fence in that style. More on this can be found on our event announcement.
We have space for any Guilds or groups that would like to meet. Please contact the stewards to reserve some space.
Please plan on joining us on November 12th for a day *well spent*. We look forward to seeing you and spending some quality time together!
Thank you in advance.
Hope to see you there!
R. Wurm
