Confirmed: YES |
| Location: |
Brook center, Winchester |
| Description: |
Mike down in Winchester has
arranged to help
collect for the DEC Asian Tsunami appeal by putting a static display on
in the Brooks shopping center in Winchester on Sat Jan 29th, basically
standing, walking (and sitting) around in armour and collecting, while
doing the usual static display stuff (talking, answering questions,
letting people try things on etc). No combat, just posing (This counts
as in the line of duty, so your OK). Its also a good opportunity for a
bit of society advertising, should be a good press presence.
If anyone would like to join in and help out, it would be appreciated,
Can do it with as few or as many as want. Currently have Craig and Mike
down.
There's parking in the centers multi-story (free) so not to far to
walk/carry and refreshments provided by the center, as well as chairs.
We will have a couple of tables to display kit, and a roped of area
behind and can hang a few flags on things etc. Can get access from
8.00, opens at 9:00, and finish at 17:30, but if you can only get along
for a few hours, want to start later or finish earlier that's fine as
well, just let us know. |

Wessex Show
|
| Start:
21/05/2005 End: 22/05/2005
BPAS Show: YES
Confirmed: YES |
| Location: |
Woodlands,showground, Frome. On
the B3092 (5 mins north of the A303). |
| Description: |
==================================
Clashes with Rookwood school on Sat. Take your pick, Rookwood is small
local really only needs the locals, so the rest should treat this as
the main event for the weekend. If you've already planned to do
Rookwood and want to change please take to Eve 1st so she can make sure
there are still the numbers to do Rookwood.
=================================
Lots of stalls and exhibits to look around. Main arena events including
the white helmets motorcycle display team, classic vehicles (civilian
and military).
We are doing a small LH encampment and stall with our own side arena,
due to the clash and lower numbers will not plan on a main arena event,
will just do our own thing in the small arena. Mixture of practice,
drill and combat displays whenever anyone wants. Will plan in a couple
of tourneys or small skirmishes. Can use the handguns if anyone wants
to?
Camping available all weekend from Friday. There is beer tent and
entertainment (I.e. bands, commedians etc) in the evenings, plus the
usual campsite merriment :) This is normally a good fun, relaxed, low
key event to start the season. Suitable for all levels of kit as
there's no authenticity, or even period, requirements being put on us
by the organisers, but obviously hope everyone will do their best as
usual. Remember loan kit and costume is available if you let us know
you need it.
THE REALLY IMPORTANT BIT
It is absolutely, positively vital that I get Car registrations in
plenty of time for passes. Without them you WILL NOT
be able to gain access to the site, without a lot of hassle for you,
and more importantly me, on the day!!! You may end up having to pay to
get in, then we have to claim it back.
Access is possible any time Friday. On Saturday and Sunday no cars will
be allowed to drive onto the site after 9:15 (the public are admitted
at 10:00) So aim to arrive before that (you also want to avoid the
public traffic if possible). If you have to arrive after, you will have
to park in the carpark, and carry your kit in, if this happens come and
find us and grap some help.
Theres a dedicated parking area for participants which cars have to
moved to after unloading,if you've only got a small amount of kit then
best bet is to park there straight away and carry it in. |

| Location: |
The lamb & Lion,
Hambridge, Somerset |
| Description: |
We have an invite from the Stags
to their
training/fun weekend in Hambridge,Somerset. This is a private (no
public) event they run for themselves and other invited groups. Its
held in a field next to a local pub, with camping. There will be some
arranged battles and then you can do as much else as you want before
and after.
The site is open from 5 o-clock on the Friday 19th August. The Stags
have requested that people bring only small tents as the extra field
they usually have at the pub is not available (if you are using a
larger tent then please arrange to share to make the most of the
space). So space is very limited this time. The pub will be open to the
public as well as ourselves but they do serve food.
Directions:
From the centre of Ilminster
take the road to Langport / Curry Rivell B3168
This road passes through a few villages before Hambridge.
The pub is on the left in the village, called "The Lamb &
Lion". The camping is at the rear.
Due to circumstances parking and camping will be a bit tight but please
bear with us.
The arena area should be available all day, so its a case of if you
want to play before or after the battle its OK
If you'd like to attend please let me know so I can let the Stags know
how many to expect.
Clashes with the invite to the Age Of Pendas do in Shaftsbury, but
different parts of the country so take your pick based on personal
preference and convenience. Unfortunately I can't make either that
weekend due to a previous engagement, so have fun if you attend either.
