Greetings to All,
	I am reposting the event flier for the officially unofficial 
handfasting of Lord James of Westmoreland and Lady Angard of 
Stirling.  I invite any and all to attend this day of fighting, 
feasting, and fun.  
            
Yes, the event is still going on, 
it's unofficial, so it isn't listed in the Acorn. 


Road to the Aisles
May 9, 1998

The Incipient College of Marshals' Keep invites one and all to join us
in celebrating the handfasting of Lady Angharad MacIvar of Stirling
and Lord James Beckett of Westmorland.  The site is the National Guard
Armory in Lexington, VA; the same site as this year's Ice Castles.
 During the day, there will be a Consort's Choice Heavy Weapons
Tourney.  For those of you unfamiliar with the format, weapons styles
fought will be chosen by the fighters' consorts .  Should you not have
a consort to bring with you, there will be many to choose from in the
crowd. There are also plans for a small rapier tourney.  As this is
not an official event, authorizations will not be held.  Prizes will
be  awarded to the winners of the tournaments, as well as to the most
chivalrous fighters.
 An Arts and Sciences display will be held during the day.  The
theme for the display is Period Wedding Items.
 An auction will be held to benefit the I. College of Marshals'
Keep; any and all items are welcome.  You can also offer up services
such as making a meal, cleaning some armor, or a back rub.  Auctioning
of persons is also accepted as we will be holding a
bachelor/bachelorette auction.  
 At the end of the day there will be a marvelous wedding feast
prepared by Arabella Grishild the Grey.  Please direct all questions
regarding feast to her at (540) 462-4693.  As always, the feast will
be followed by dancing, dancing and yet more dancing until everyone
falls over or the site closes at midnight, whichever comes first.
 Site fee is $5.  The site is wet, but all containers must be
properly disposed of.  Again, the site does have showers for the weary
fighters to use after the tourney.  Merchants are welcome.  Please
direct any questions to the autocrat, Adrianna de Bretagne   (Andrea
Ewing) at  (540) 462-4559 or e-mail at aewing@wlu.edu
 Directions: Take   I-81 to exit 191 (I-64 W)  Take 64 W to exit
55, about 1/2 mile.  Turn left at the top of the ramp onto 11 South. 
Turn right at the first light.  Turn left just past Rockbridge County
HS.  The Armory is at the end of the road.

Thank you,
Adrianna
