Fall Guild Schedule

For anyone not on the Stormvale e-mail list here is the fall schedule for the Artisans Guild and Youth Fighting hosted by Lady Terryl!!!

We met Tues eve and came up with the following. First of all, youth stuff will be on every other Tuesday night with a little fighting and a little crafts. Youth and adults are welcome on every Tuesday, but youth nights have things aimed at kids. All are most welcome to come play - particularly our older fighters who can help train the young uns. If adults wish to fight those nights, they are more than welcome to do so, but it would probably be wise to send out a call to get others there to fight with. The crafts those nights will be aimed at kids, but all who want to craft can come. If you have an unfinished project, or are working on something else, you may bring it to any craft night.

Artisan's guild schedule -

9/4 Finish glass and boxes. Glaze clay pieces. Anything not finished at this point will be put to the side. Youth combat will happen from 5 - 7. Guild will be from 5 - 9.
9/11 Viking wire weaving, 7 - 9
9/18 Youth night
9/25 Calligraphy 101 - teacher pending on the various volunteers and how they split the tasks

11/6 Decorating Russian enamel boxes - boxes will be painted ahead - just the decorative painting will occur
11/13 Arrowmaking 101 - Lord Erevon, Youth combat as well, since we will be taking a break on Thanksgiving week coming up
11/20 - Thanksgiving week - break
11/27 - Illumination or calligraphy 102 - see notes for 9/25
December to be announced
Unless otherwise noted, guild nights will be 7 - 9. Youth, I believe is 6 - 8. Some classes will need "reservations" because we need to know approximately how many supplies to bring. Note also, if kids are brought to adult guild night, some crafts are more applicable than others. I believe most teenagers can handle anything an adult craft night would throw out - unless otherwise noted. Next week, we will be discussing what crafts the kids want to do, so let the kids know to think about it. Unless I hear any objections, I am going to send an invite out to those groups local to us to let them know this exists and they are welcome to join us if they so choose. If you want to object, do so soon - the invites will go out t his weekend.

We also very briefly discussed the event. Gerard was going to notify the Pale that we were not going to have a formal event since we would not be having a meeting in time to advertise it. So, we will be having a Founder's day - that will hopefully be a tad fancier than normal. Plans to be made at September's revel. I don't remember the upcoming schedule, but since at one point, the post event party was to be at my house, I offer my house again. A thought to be put out there - and considered or ignored - is to have an overnight event with pavilions, perhaps, a fire, drumming etc. Maybe no one else will be into it, but I would like to do something a tad bit more memorable than a regular feast for our 25th anniversary. Just a thought.

In service,

Terryl
