>>>Lady Rhiannon asked about the next Crown Tourney.  My understanding is
that 
it will be held the weekend of November 4 at Huntington Castle in Myrtle 
Beach, SC.  Hopefully the next Acorn will have details on the exact location 
and accommodations.<<<

The September Acorn *does* have the flyer provided by the Autocrats for Crown
Tourney...However, they wanted me to use their flyer as sent so I cut and
pasted it.  For some reason they decided to use a ***very*** stylized font.
 It is *extremely* difficult to read.  I will attempt to get a more readable
copy from them for the October Acorn.  


The main points in the flyer are as follows:

Crown Tournament
St. Michaels Keep
4-5 November 95

Site:  Atalanta? at Huntington Beach State Park between Myrtle Beach and
Georgetown, SC.  Site opens at 2:00 pm on Friday and the Troll will be manned
till 10:00 pm  (I don't know why they are closing the troll at 10:00 ... Call
the Autocrat)  It will reopen at 8:00 am on Saturday.  

Each campsite has electricity and water. and accommodates 2 tents. (of
course...I don't know if that is pavillion size tents or dome tents or what)
