Golden Seamstress Challenge II

Pennsic has passed. The insistent drumbeats of war have faded, allowing us to once again listen to gentler melodies. If you listen carefully, you can hear the siren song of the muses, coaxing you to the arts. The weather is (FINALLY) growing cooler; the creative juices begin to flow. The urge is upon us to… make something. And yet we also still want to *crush our opponents.* And then, you know, have dinner with them. How to reconcile these urges?

Do we have a deal for you!

The Barony Beyond the Mountain is *delighted* to host our second Golden Seamstress Challenge!

Here’s how it works:

Assemble a team of up to six crazy, err… motivated sewers. READ THE RULES. Alert the event steward that you intend to drive your opposition weeping from the field, err… that you intend to compete. READ THE RULES. Plan your outfit. Assemble your tools and materials. Assemble your snacks! (WE am STILL in awe of the snacks from last year.) Arrive on site on Friday October, 26, and at 10pm… SEW! SEW LIKE THE WIND!

As an aside, we should see if we can find someone who looks reasonably like Martin Short to roam the event saying that at random intervals. But we digress.

Eighteen hours later, the judges will determine whose snack fueled visions will take bragging rights for this year. (Seriously – the snacks were amazing.) And then win or lose, you can wear it to Crown Tournament to wow the masses and casually say “Oh, this? This is just something we whipped up at Golden Seamstress.”

You know you want to.

All the details can be found via the event announcement: http://eastkingdom.org/EventDetails.php?eid=3360 Please note that only the first link to the full website is functional.

For honor and glory! And snacks!

Due to a powerful nor’easter predicted for this weekend, it is with much regret that we announce the cancellation of Sir Wilhelm’s Hastilude & Demo III.

Unfortunately, there is no raindate, but we hope to have it again next year.

If you know someone who was planning to come, please pass this cancellation around. Thank you.

13418821_10209647711210135_3194491490166015579_nThis Saturday, the Barony of Settmour Swamp is pleased to host Brennan & Caoilfhionn’s Ducal Challenges. The day will feature prize tournaments for both armored and rapier combatants. Each combatant is asked to furnish a prize either made or sponsored (not purchased) for the prize pool.

Winners will alternate choosing prizes with the artists who made those prizes.

Their Graces goals for this event are two-fold.
1) To provide a tournament and an opportunity to train for either Crown or K&Q rapier.
2) To promote a well-rounded Kingdom, where prowess at arms walks hand in hand with excellence in the arts.

Anyone who wishes to participate, but does not have either an art to present or a combatant to represent their art, please contact Duke Brennan via brennan at hullraiser dot com.

Full details are available on the event website: http://www.eastkingdom.org/EventDetails.php?eid=3058

Event Announcements in the Gazette

EK Gazette LogoAutocrats – would you like to have your event announcement seen by more people?

The East Kingdom Gazette will publish event announcements from autocrats for events within the East Kingdom, or which have some significance to the residents of the East.

An article in the Gazette will allow you to share details that aren’t appropriate for the East Kingdom web site, such as photos of the site,  pithy quotes from people involved in the event, or a bit of the history of the event. The intent is to add value to the announcement, not just replicate what’s on the East Kingdom web site.

We’ll also include as much of the official event announcement as you request, or as many event details as we feel would be useful as a backup to other information sources.
