As the Winter deepens, let us jeer and chase it away with Holiday Cheer! Baron Ichijo Honen and Baroness Cerridwen de Skeen invite all of Southern
Æthelmearc to join the Barony of Blackstone Mountain in revelry January 17, 2015 at the Tyler Mountain Volunteer Fire Station Community Hall (5380 Big
Tyler Rd, Cross Lanes WV 25356). Site opens at 9am and closes at 9pm.

The Watery Tarts Cooking Guild is providing a grand wild game feast, although they invite all guests to bring a dish to share with the populace for luncheon and snacking during the day. There will also be a Dessert Contest, with Baron’s Choice, Baroness’ Choice, and Populace Choice prizes. For Feast information and allergy questions, please contact Astridr Vigaskegg (Kelly West, phone 304-444-7635)

Wondering what to do all day (besides eat)? There will be games of chance for all levels of skill, from the simplest dice throwing to draughts and hnefatafl. Tokens will be given at the door to use for betting, and a prize will be given for Adult and Child with the most tokens won.

But what is the price for such a wonderful day? A mere pittance! Site only is $7 Adult and $5 for 16 and under (babes in arms free). Pre-Register for Feast and add only $10 Adult and $8 for 16 and under. At the door, Feast will be $12 Adult and $10 for 16 and under. The only Pre-Reservation is a PAID Reservation, so Register early by sending your check to Reservation Clerk, Lady Odette d’Arques (Misty Rouse, 990 Old Point Rd. St. Albans, WV 25177). Make checks payable to SCA Inc-WV; Barony of Blackstone Mountain.
