Angevin Fall Hunt
September 26-28, 1997

"And once he has entered the fray,
let each man of High Birth think of nothing
but the breaking of heads and arms;
for it is better to die,
than be vanquished and live..."
                                          - Betrand de Born, 12c

The Barony of Caer Mear invites you to celebration of the twelfth century
at this Angevin Fall Hunt. So put away your round shield, gothic plate, or
houppelaunde and pull out your chainmail, aketon, and blieut! Journey with
us back to the time of Richard the Lion-Heart, William Marshall, and
Eleanor of Aquitaine.


Like the Angevins, who ruled England, and most of France from 1154 to 1215,
 
WE ENJOY A GOOD FIGHT...
Fall Hunt: (for aroured combat and duello) while away an hour as would a
noble from Anjou, Normandy, or England - Hunt the elusive beasts of the
woods!
Next, experience the hierarchy of feudal life with our 12c Melee Tourney:
Your rank will count on the field so knights, assemble your mesinees of
squires and sergeants for combat, glory and ransom.
Then end your fighting day the way a Anvegin king might... siege a vassal's
castle by engaging in Combat across the Barrier.
Prizes shall be awarded to the day's victors, as well as the best 12c
fighting harness.
Combat archers are encouraged to attend. Our day shall begin at 10:00 am,
with authorization.

TO INSPIRE THE HEART AND MIND
S.W.A.T. (Spun, Warped, and Twisted) will host a 12c Fiber Arts Day.(works
in progess are encouraged)
Our A&S Competitions shall be:
12c garb accessory, (hosted by S.W.A.T.)
12c men's and women's garb, (worn during feast)
best poem written in a 12c style (troubabor,trouvere, andulisian, etc.)

A hearty Feast of the year's harvest, full of the bounty of the Hunt shall
be prepared once again by Lady Caitlin MacAlister. (Kay Jensen [804]
262-5509 ) Please reserve early as our hall is limited to 110. There is no
off-board space available in the hall; however, personal grills are
allowed, and maps to local eateries will be provided.

Afterwards, compete to be named "prince of the puy" in our 12c bardic
competition, or simply come listen to our circle. Rumour has it that the
Hunter's Horn may sound yet again(and again, and again), liken to Olifant,
as it did last year.(The site is discreetly wet.)
