Come to the Pennsic 101 Class

March 19, 2023 Posted inCalendar, Pennsic

Pennsic pre-reg has opened, and people are starting to think about Pennsic, so…

Pennsic 101 class ONLINE – Wednesday 3/29/23 7pm Eastern ***Class will not be recorded***

You want to go to Pennsic! Everyone you talk to makes it sound like so much fun… but you’ve never done anything like this, so… now what do you do?

Come to Pennsic 101 on Wednesday March 29 2023 at 7pm to find out! (Those with Pennsic experience are very welcome – I don’t know everything, plus I’ve had 40+ year veterans learn something new in this class!)

The class will be held ONLINE. The class will be held via Google Meet. Class link will be posted the day before. Check here for the link.

Pennsic is a wonderful SCA event and attending this class will help you to both prepare and have the best time possible… We will discuss how to prepare for Pennsic, what you will need to do and bring. We will answer questions you may have on how to manage to get your things to Pennsic and what you can expect when you finally get there and get set up. If you have garb you’ve already made and are not sure it’s Pennsic-ready, bring it. We can help you decide.

I look forward to seeing you there!
