[Mary Placeway]

Greetings from Genevieve!

(This message was also sent to the AEthelmearc email list; should appear soon.)

Classes for the Castle Schola, Barony-Marche of the Debatable Lands,
March 5, 2011

We will have a wide variety of classes available, including lectures,
tours, demonstrations, hands-on classes, and slide shows. Some of the
classes are "youth-oriented" (classes mainly for children) and some
are "youth friendly" (a class for both children and adults).  Many
classes will be open to all, though hands-on participation for a few
classes may be limited to certain age groups for safety.  (Current SCA
youth policies will be followed for all classes, as appropriate.)

The class schedule is currently being finalized; class descriptions
and the schedule of class times will be posted soon.  I am contacting
instructors to verify class descriptions and class times -- please let
me know if your class title is not listed correctly, or if you have
any other concerns.  The current list of classes follows below (listed
