We are fortunate that, so close on the heels of a wonderful Minohi event, we can gather together again! Several people have taken initiative in asking to hold SCA-related activities in addition to the Barony meeting at our house this coming Sunday, March 8th. So we have a very exciting and interesting day for all who attend! Please bear in mind that, though we love more people at our house, our neighbors have had some parking complaints. We ask, therefore, that people carpool if possible, park diagonally on the grass to take up less room, and use some of our nice neighbors' frontage which we will delineate. Here is the list of activities going on: 1) Barony meeting at 1pm in great hall 2) Intensive Sewing workshop for TRH's in the basement starting at 10am 3) Mistress Antoinette's perogie making class in Period Kitchen (some time after meeting) 4) Heraldic consultation and montly Herald's meeting in library (most of afternoon after meeting) 5) Our Chronicler, Elss of Augsburg, will hold drawing and illustration time for all, especially children, who would create artwork for the Althing. Location will be where she prefers. 6) Leah will be selling off the troupe's excess Girl Scout cookies (cookies are cash-and-carry). Let us know if you have any particular amount and type you'd like us to set aside for you. 7) Fencing (outdoors or in great hall after meeting depending on weather) 8) Rattan fighting (outdoors or in basement after meeting) 9) Birthday party with cool cake for Lucas, our youngest local Grand Master Bowman, who's turning 14! That is what we have as of now. Just use Google maps for 755 Stonegate Drive, Wexford PA 15090 for directions. Feel free to bring any food or drink to contribute! We look forward to seeing folks this Sunday! Yours, Byron and Ariella -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Fondly, Maynard and Liadain Prince and Princess From lefkowitzga at earthlink.net Mon Mar 9 22:25:57 2009 From: lefkowitzga at earthlink.net (Gail Lefkowitz) Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2009 22:25:57 -0400 (GMT-04:00) Subject: [SCA-BMDL] Sewing Circle on March 18 (Wednesday) Message-ID: <29470285.1236651957276.JavaMail.root@elwamui-little.atl.sa.earthlink.net> Next week on Wednesday night, March 18, is the next scheduled sewing circle at the home of Ts'vee'a bas Tseepora Levi. Sewing will occur between 8-10pm and all are welcome. Please RSVP if you are coming to lefkowitzga at earthlink.net. Directions are listed below. Please take this opportunity to research your next outfit, get a fitting on a work in progress, or just bring your outfit and work on it while you schmooze. Books are available for anyone who is trying to decide on the next project. Contact Ts'vee'a with questions at 412-361-0718 (evenings before 9) I will need to move the sewing circles from Wednesday starting in April. Input on which day to hold it would be welcome. Another request for input - is there any interest in a day-long sewing circle similar to the one we just had to sew for the Royalty? We would hold it towards the end of April or sometime in May. DIRECTIONS The address is 5167 Rosecrest Drive, Pgh 15201. Directions from the north are to take the Parkway north to Rt 28, and head away from Pittsburgh to the 40th Street Bridge. Cross the bridge and head up the hill to Penn Ave. Turn left onto Penn.* >From the south, come into Pittsburgh either through the Liberty Tubes or the Liberty Bridge and go towards the Arena to get onto Bigelow Blvd. Follow Bigelow and take the exit for Liberty Avenue in Bloomfield. You will cross the Bloomfield Bridge. Go straight, between Young Bin Kwan restaurant and the Shur Save grocery. Go one block and turn left onto Friendship at the light, and then one more block and turn right onto Penn Ave at the next light.* *Once you are on Penn, go past the Children's Hospital construction and the entrance to Allegheny Cemetary and turn left at Mathilda. Follow the cemetary, bearing left onto Mossfield Road. When the cemetary ends, turn left onto Azure Street. The Jehovah Witness Church is too far. Azure is 1 block and bears left onto Schenley Manor Drive. Go one block on Schenley Manor and turn right onto Rosecrest. The house is the next one in from the corner on the right. >From the East End, the best route is to take Negley Avenue north to the first light past East Liberty Blvd. This is Black Street. Turn left onto Black. Go through the light at Chislett and up the hill. At N. Aiken, Black becomes Mossfield Drive. Start down the hill and take the next right at Azure. Bear left onto Schenley Manor Drive, and right at the next street onto Rosecrest. The house is the next one in from the corner on the right. >From further points east, take the Parkway to the Swissvale exit, and turn right onto Braddock. Follow Braddock @1 mile to Penn Avenue, Turn right onto Penn. Follow Penn. After Fifth Avenue (a big intersection) get into the right lane and take the next right onto East Liberty Blvd. Follow E. Liberty Blvd. until it ends and turn right onto N. Negley. The next light is Black Street. Turn left onto Black. Go through the light at Chislett and up the hill. At N. Aiken, Black becomes Mossfield Drive. Start down the hill and take the next right at Azure. Bear left onto Schenley Manor Drive, and right at the next street onto Rosecrest.

If you have space for an extra person in your car, she would appreciate the ride. If there is space for two people in your vehicle, then her husband Count Sir Jehan de la Marche also would like to come. He writes: "We would hope to leave Friday afternoon or evening. Ideally, she would like to meet someone at a secure parking lot near the Pittsburgh airport where she could leave her vehicle and transfer to the other; alternatively, if someone lives close to I-79 and has room for her to leave her vehicle, that would work. She would of course be happy to contribute to the cost. If space is available, she and I would both go; if space is limited she would go without me." If you are interested, please contact them at CountSirJehan at cs.com.

Message-ID: Hello! Because of some emergency construction in Old Main Chaple, we've been moved to Keystone 205. Keystone is located in the second half of campus, on the left hand side of the main road, past the construction area. It is the building with a metal keystone on it. Parking is to the left of the union, or, if you keep driving to the stop sign and take a left, there is parking in a lot there. You can also continue down that road to find more parking near Public Safety (where the police cars are at). There will be signs, because 205 isn't really on the second floor, but inside a stairwell area. Don't worry, though, it is a large room. I apologize for this last minute change.

It's kept with the larder, alongside pots and serving dishes and other useful-for-events stuff. I've just been inventorying it. There are two boxes. The small box is easily transported and contains two or three sets each of nine-man morris, alquerques, tablero, hneftafl, fox and geese, and shove-groat, as well as one or two sets each of backgammon, checkers, chess, cards, and goose. Each game has a board, pieces, dice if needed, and rules. So if you are organizing an SCA activity at which there will be, or may be, period games, be aware that the small game box is there to serve as an instant-period-gaming solution. (The other box is huge, and should only be used if you're planning extensive gaming activities. It contains spare chess and backgammon sets, lots of poker chips, components (cloth boards, glass chips) for another 3-4 of each period board game, a tiddly-winks set (don't ask me why), and spare odds and ends. (E.g., it has the leftover handouts - with rules, etc. - from the gaming event for which these sets were made.) It used to have an extra Goose board too, but I couldn't find it.) - Dani From frrom at comcast.net Sat Mar 21 23:33:09 2009 From: frrom at comcast.net (Frrom) Date: Sat, 21 Mar 2009 23:33:09 -0400 Subject: [SCA-BMDL] Practice on 3/22 Message-ID: <49C5B175.4040502@comcast.net> Greetings, Is anyone going by the North side tomorrow (3/22) for practice?
