Event details

At the very edge of our Shire, on the Borderlands, there will be an encampment to train and ready ourselves for exploration into what lies beyond in the Great Unknown.  There will be Scholas for both Fencing and Forestry, with schedules to be posted here as available.  Instruction will be offered by Experts and Outlaws from Far and Anon.

Archers and fighters of all ages will have the opportunity to challenge themselves against brigands and monsters, for we know not what lies beyond our Borders.  Schola classrooms, used for Forestry and Fencing during the daytime hours will be made available for board games and games of strategy and adventure in the evenings.  Bring your favorite games...

This is the farthest point out in our shire, past our towns and villages.  Site is primitive, but there will be port-a-castles in convenient places, and potable water freely available. 

Site Opens: 3 pm Friday, August 29
Site Closes: 12 pm, noon Monday, September 1
