[SCA-BMDL] Demo in the Highlands -- April 21st

[Monica Gaudio]

Greetings from Illadore!

Misty Highlands is putting on another demo to raise money for Relay for Life on April 21st. There will both a rapier tourney and a heavy weapons tournament. :)

Last year, Misty Highlands put on the demo and did a fantastic job! Everyone had a great time! If you're interested, please consider coming down and having a good time and raising money for a good cause.

  The Shire of Misty Highlands is once again teaming up with Healthsouth 
  Rehab Hospital, to raise money for the Relay for Life. If your life has 
  ever been touched by Cancer then you know what a worthy cause this is. 
  The American Cancer society helps to provide funds for not only research 
  but for victims their families, survivors and supporters. Last year, 
  with only 3 weeks notice and nothing but 1 e-mail to this list, we had 
  over 30 people come out and participate. In 8 hours we raised nearly 
  $1000. This year we have more space, more time, and plenty of 
  determination. 

  The date for the Demo (an Historic Holiday) is April 21st. 
  That is the Saturday between Coronation and Blackstone Raids. We are 
  going to have a really great fencing tournament. Madeline has offered 
  to donate as a prize a doublet made for the winner, you pick the fabric, 
  you pick the trim, and she will make it look beautiful. The tournament 
  will be single elimination and the entry fee is $5. You may purchase up 
  to 3 resurrections. So for a $20 donation you get 4 chances at this 
  fabulous prize! . There will be a similar Heavy Weapons Tournament 
  with a prize made by Gareth Kinkaid. We are also going to have lots of 
  room for A&S Displays and performance arts. We are calling for 
  donations for a silent auction and for a gift basket that will be 
  raffled at the Relay in June. Artisans, if you are unable to attend, 
  please feel free to send items for either of these projects. 
  As with last year, overnight accommodations are at the hospital 
  discounted rates with local hotels. If you are interested (even if you 
  don't need hotel info) contact me at Shelly.Dusic at healthsouth.com. If 
  you are interested in attending, please let me know before April 1st. 
  (We have to know how many funnel cakes to order.) Please forward this to 
  any other lists you think are appropriate. 
  I look forward to seeing you all there! 


  Sincerely, 

  Lady Gwyneth McClelland
