<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal">Greetings to the Populace of Aethelmearc,</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">I have come to ask you all a boon. On Tuesday, April 5<sup>th</sup>, 2016 there will be a Saint George Celebration here at California University of PA. It takes place from 11:00-3:00 at the library. While I know it is a week day, and all of us are working, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in coming and teaching, adding their crafts to the display, or just coming to add to the ambiance.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Sionn the lost had already graciously agreed to come down and teach dancing. We will have a display of fencing, as well. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">The tagline is “A day of books and roses” – they are concentrating on books and would love to have book binding. Mistress Fredeburg has volunteered some of her print making work to enrich the display. Anyone who wants to display or create scribal art would also be welcome, and I know calligraphy is also a draw.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">They want food -- they figure the students and community will be drawn by the promise of free food. They would like people to come and walk around in garb and be part of the spectacle, so anyone who wanted to could join in the dancing, fighting, or sitting around creating art. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">I am hoping to make this into an opportunity for us to reach out to the university and community (it is open to the public) and recruit, as well as to show the university what we offer. (It’s nice to remind them.</p><p class="MsoNormal">)</p><p class="MsoNormal">If you can do anything, please let me know. You can reach me at gabbywinter @ gmail dot com.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Also, please don’t forget the fencing muster on March 6<sup>th</sup>! That runs from 10:00 until 5:00. We will be doing fencing and MOL practice. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">With gratitude,</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Gabrielle de Winter</p>
