<DIV>Greetings all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We have talked about it, and now the day is nearly here. I am asking for
whom is planning on coming to Dante's school, Massaponax High School this
Saturday, Dec 13, from 10 am to 4 pm, and what are you planning on
bringing/doing? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We will have tables for static displays and hands on activities. I plan on
bringing my set of 3 man morris, 9 man morris, and 12 man morris game boards to
have out and challenge players to learn and play. I will also have lucets and
string available to "play with". </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We will have space for a heavy fighting and rapier demo (tables can serve
as a safety barrier, and as you know, we will need marshals). Last year it
worked well to have the fighting demos and explanation of what we the SCA is
doing during the students' lunch break.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The students are playing a (warcraft style?) game that culminated their
medieval unit. There are tables, and teams have characters to game with
depending on the projects and such they completed in this unit. It is
interesting to watch. There are also tables with some of their projects and
reports on display. Last year I enjoyed reading many of them. I plan on bringing
little tokens (with an attached paper explaining that in the SCA we leave tokens
to show that we were interested in what you did and liked seeing your work)
for the better projects. Lunch (pizza, sandwiches...) and sodas were also
available for consumption by students and us. The parents and siblings get
interested in looking at what we do, and in doing something while the students
are playing. During lunch or toward the end of the afternoon when some teams are
out is when we get the most attention by the students.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The High School is located off of Rt 1 in Spotsylvannia Co. Coming from the
north or south along the I 95 corridor, get off the interstate at the Massaponax
exit (south of Fredericksburg-north of Thornburg), and proceed south on Rt 1
through all the shopping. Massaponax High School in on the left. Go in the front
door. There are usually students to help carry and set up. Coming from Rt 3 or
Rt 17, go to I 95, and proceed south from there as directed above.</DIV>
