What's that? You say you shoot archery in the Barony of Ayreton...even in a part
time fashion? Well then if that's the case, please email me (at
"stoutmaker@...") with your SCA name, mundane name, e-mail address and
street address so that we can add you to the roster of the Ayreton archery
community for this years Domesday reporting and help show the rest of the middle
Kingdom just how healthy our archery community is.

Know a friend that you know shoots archery, please tell them to PM me with this
information.

I would like to have this information by next Monday , so please send this by
this weekend if at all possible, as I did not get a database of this information
from the outgoing marshal, so this will help GREATLY!

Thanks.

With 12th Night planned as our next court, we would be happy to entertain
suggestions for award
recipients.  We still need to be cautious in posting award names, as they are
still in flux due to the college of heralds procedures. However, we can specify
what is already a standard for our ‘pretty promissory notes’ aka awards given so
far, with names subject to change: 

 

Orders (may be given out only once)

- Riain’s Star (Youth award—name has passed)

- Fighter award (all styles:heavy, light…)

- Arts

- Service

 

Awards (may be awarded multiple times)

-Service: one award- multiple types (current plan is up to 7), designated by
color. Current color
designations include Orange for troop support. Blue for general
help/toting/lifting hauling, etc.


We're also happy to consider other award ideas. 
Please let us know your recommendations off-list.

I am teaching inkle loom weaving at Twelfth Night (1/12/13) and I only have
access to 2 or 3 looms. If you have one and you are making it to Twelfth Night
and could let me use it for the day (it would be returned to you after 2 PM that
day.) I would appreciate it. Please plan to drop it off early if you can. I am
not sure when I am teaching I THINK it is 1 PM. Please mark your loom clearly so
we can identify it as yours.

Thanks in advance!

I spin wool on a spinning wheel and I am looking for MORE spinners in the
Ayreton area. I am hoping to have a Spinning session at my home every Second
Sunday, starting the Sunday after 12th Night (1/13.) I am on the Northside of
Chicago in Old Irving Park right by the blue line. Or would having a crew meet
at Ida Noyes during Fighter practice be better? Talk to me.  And if possible,
bring your wheel, your handspindle, your curiosity to try this craft out with
you and join me!

Vittoria Governante

I have an inkle loom you can use (I won it at the volunteer raffle at my first
Gulf Wars and have never used it, it's just the loom I don't have any cards).  I
am working Troll all day, so you can pick it up from me there at any time!

Hello Melanie,
  I am from a local area just north of Glenview and am very familiar with the area (my mom grew up in Glenview and uncle owns the house that their family grew up in).  The Chicago area is the Barony of Ayreton area and north of that is the Shire of Ravenslake.  Both areas play well together, have local events often, and you should have numbers of people who would be very welcoming.
  In Glenview we have archery practice when the weather is nice.  We even have several very talented archers that not only make their own arrows but have even learned to make their own long bows.  So there is much archery for whatever you wish to learn or participate in.
  Feasts, we have some VERY TALENTED cooks in our areas that make the best feasts.  If it is helping in the kitchen, serving, or just eating and being social they are a great time. 
  Gambling/Gaming is something that is done here.  We actually have an event in the spring that is all about gambling.  Period games, a pawn shop if you need to get more coin or see somethin that catches your eye that you would like to bid on at the end of the evening, betting on fencers, it is a marvelous event.  Stone Dog Inn.
  There are other events that other groups have are amazing as well.  Not terribly far that you would be able to day trip to if you wish.
  Bristol is our local ren faire that is just over the Wisconsin border about 45 minutes to an hour from Glenview.  It is a great time and I believe tickets for the season are currently on sale for $10.  Some of our local scadians actually can be found working there in the summer. 
  I am not too familiar with the local larping group so for that I will give you my friend Jorie's name.  She does have contact with some of the local groups and she is in the next town over from Glenview.

  Hope this information has helped you.  If you need more information please do not hesitate to ask.

Happy Holidays
Keiley
