Mar 20th - Coronation of Stephan and Niobe
Barony of Caer Mear, Bon Air, VA

Their Highnesses, Stephan and Niobe, send warm greetings to the populace of
Atlantia and an
invitation to Their Coronation.

Site: The site will be St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Bon Air, VA. Site
will open at 10:00 a.m. and close
at 10:00 p.m. Coronation is scheduled to begin at noon. 

The Tournaments: Following the Coronation ceremony the Tourneys will begin.
The Tournaments will
include a heavy list with the format to be decided by His Highness; a rapier
tournament to choose the
Queen's Champion; and a 75-yard Clout shoot for the archers. Her Highness will
attend all three
tourneys.

Arts & Sciences: There will be a scroll competition based on the Kingdom Award
scroll backlog (contact
the Kingdom Clerk of the Signet or the Status Scribe for backlog assignments),
and a Bardic competition
to create a rousing new Pennsic war song for Atlantia. 

Children's Events: Children's events will be held throughout the day.

Their Hignesses desire to have entertainment for all gentles in the pavillions
around the tourney field. If
you desire to set up your pavillion "ringside" on the tourney field, you must
provide entertainment for
gentles who visit your pavillion. Examples of this are period games, riddle
toys, puzzles, knowledge
quests, etc. After their coronation, Stephan and Niobe will make a progress
around the field to enjoy the
entertainment. Questions can be directed to Master Terafan Greydragon,
barclayp@lee.army.mil or (804)
530-9000.
