<DIV>As much as I hate to contradict anyone on these lists, I feel that I must
do so.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sudentorre has not yet officially decided to do this demo. At the
last business meeting, we discussed the possibility, but did not have sufficient
information to formulate a plan. Cairstiona is in the process of getting a
better idea of what the demo will require and allow. Once we have
that information, we will make a decision. Depending on the timing, we may
make that decision through these mailing lists.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>By all means, brainstorm, and communicate with Mistress Blitha about your
ideas. </DIV>

<DIV>In service,</DIV>

a </SPAN><B><I><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span>Demo at the Dog
Mar</SPAN></I></B><I><B><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span>t</SPAN></B></I><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span> on
saturday, Oct 2, all day</SPAN>. <SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span>This is an
educational/community involvement Demo in the City of
Fredericksburg (last year it was at the Fredericksburg
fairgrounds, and prior to that it was at the Izzaac Walton
League).</SPAN> The Dog Mart is a day for the dogs and for
dog lovers. Way back during Colonial days, the Colonial
government in Williamsburg forbade the colonists to trade
with the Indians, because the Indians were aquiring guns by
trade. But as the Indian hunting methods had to change to
sustain themselves, they desired trained English hunting
dogs, and the colonists desired pelts. So, the colonial
government declaired on fall trading time so pelts and dogs
could be traded. In the Fredericksburg area, this dog
centered day has carried on.... it became a day of parades
with dogs, of a carnival, of dog shows, of other dog related
activities. Last year it got much attention at the
Fairgrounds. This year it is growing again and will be in
downtown Fredericksburg. The organizers feel that the
medieval fighting is not dog related. But they still wish us
to come and present a historical view of dogs in the past,
and to take part in the opening of the Dog Mart: where the
Potowamac Indian tribe will come to trade with the colonial
Englishmen for dogs. So... we will need men dressed in late
Elizabethan garb (or later out of period for us... but most
of the public doesn't know their historical fashions) for
the opening ceramonies. We will have dog related activities
such as coloring sheets, medieval games (hare and hounds
sounds good to me... other dog named games?), dog fashions
(anyone wish to research and make some of the medieval dog
collars and equipment... there are some facinating leather,
studded, and beautifully embroidered collars!!!!), what did
hunters wear (accessorized with crossbow and boar spear),
information on dog breeds and uses for dogs during SCA
period, and kids can get thier pictures as young Elizabeth
(who holds a squirel) or young Edward (who has a
dog)... We will need help in doing this Demo...Everyone
is invited to research what kinds of dogs their persona
would/could have had (and then come in your spiff garb and
bring or tell about your dogs! Dogs are welcome and
encouraged to this demo!)... do you have pictures of your
kinds of dogs? We can make life size cutouts of the dogs
your persona would have used, and have them on display at
the Dogmart! What other dog related ideas and information
and activities can you think of and help us with?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span>Following the Dog Mart, we are
planning a </SPAN><B><I><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span>Meet and Greet Activity
Night</SPAN></I></B><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: large" class=Apple-style-span> on tuesday, Oct 5 from 7-9pm at
the CCC on Dandridge Ave in Fredericksburg (near University
of Mary Washington).</SPAN> We wish to have an evening for
anyone new or newish to the SCA with medieval foods to
taste, activities to try, and experienced SCA peoples to
talk to about the SCA. We encourage all to talk to your
neighbors and workmates, and invite them to this fun
informational evening. We invite all to come to our Meet and
Greet Activity Night and meet and greet others and share
what fun you are having in the SCA! Wear garb if you desire,
bring the activities you are working on and can show/teach a
new person, bring a tasty dish (with ingredients in case
they may have allergies), and/or just come and meet and
greet!</DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>More information will be coming later... and if you
have ideas, or can help, please contact me!</DIV>
