<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">Greetings Gentles of the Barony
of Stierbach!</span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">As a reminder, Saturday, January
9, 2010 will be the Stierbach's (free and nearby) version of Twelfth Night,
held at the Prince William Fencing Academy in Manassas, VA. What better
way to spend the day than to go grazing through a food supply while spending
time with friends? And that's no bull.</span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">The day's heavy fighting will
take the form of a White Bull Gift tourney. Fighters are suggested
to bring a gift of less than $10 in value. This will
start with a Single Elimination, single sword tourney to decide the
order of choosing the gifts. Then there will be a round
robin tourney of any weapon form. Each fighter puts his received
gift on the line; the winner of each bout gets the choice of gift..</span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">Youth fighting will be available
in the first half of the day, fencing will occur pending the availability of
fencing marshals.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">There will be several classes
offered, including classes on buttons and dancing. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">People who wish to take part in
a gift exchange are encouraged to bring a wrapped gift of no greater than $25
in value. The rules of the gift exchange game will be explained the day of
the event.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">There will be a bardic circle in
the afternoon, a performance of the Mummer’s Play by I Torii, and a Ball in
the evening.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">Your Barony will greatly
appreciate it if you are able to bring a dish to share for about 6-8
people. There is a refrigerator, a small microwave oven, and places to
plug in crock pots. The main dinner will be about 5:00pm, so if you are
planning on bringing a hot dish, that would be the time do it. Of
course, things that can be eaten during the morning and afternoon would also
be appreciated so that we all can nibble throughout the day. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">No your item does not need to be
"period". You are certainly allowed to make an authentic
period creation should you choose. This is a Twelfth Night celebration,
so holiday food is also welcome. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">Please try to bring your feast
gear as well, as that makes for a more festive atmosphere.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">The schedule for the day's
activities is as follows, please note that activity times will overlap, so
there will be several things going on at the same time.</span></p>
