The Dominion of Myrkfaelinn presents on October 24th:

Duck, Duck, Goose

Look back and remember fondly the game from 
childhood or think back upon the last time you 
had delicious fowl for dinner. Now you can enjoy 
both at Myrkfaelinn’s Fall event “Duck, Duck, 
Goose” to be held Oct 24th and 4-H Acres (418 
Lower Creek Rd, Ithaca Ny 14850).  As the fowl 
take to the sky, the fighters take to field for a 
day full of games and melee. There will be Heavy 
Fighting, Youth Combat, Thrown Weapons, Archery, 
and Fencing (if a marshal can be found.) There 
will be period games to play, dancing to do, and 
of course children’s activities. Lord Rubyn 
Makdonald will be hosting a period games tournament.

The Autocrat is Lady Gytha Oggsdottir (Lori
