Agenda (subject to additions):
Provincial Archery Championship
Hear ye, populace of the Crown Province of Østgarðr!
As we come ever closer to the changing of season so must we, your provincial champions, also make way for change. As your archery champion, I hereby announce this year’s tournament to decide the next provincial champion.
This year we will be hosting the provincial archery championship at The Feast of John Barleycorn. The theme will be “An Archer’s Coming of Age”. With the aid of Lord Friderich Grimme and Lord Francisco de Braga, we anticipate this year’s tournament to be a great one.
I implore all Archers of the populace, regardless of skill, to participate in this year’s tournament. For those who are not of the province we also encourage you to participate so that we may recognize the best Archer from far off lands.
Yours in service, Catelin Straquhin, Crown Province of Østgarðr Archery Champion
Last day to preregister for Siege of Granada!
Today is your last day to preregister for the Siege of Granada (May 11, Putnam County Park). https://eastkingdom.org/EventDetails.php?eid=3461
The year is 1259, just one year after the Siege of Baghdad. Mongke Khan has a growing sense of doom. Seeing the end of his reign, he seeks to consolidate power for his son, Kublai, by sending any potential rival far from the center of the Mongol seat of power. Ariqbok Khan was sent into the far reaches of the Arabic world with the Golden Horde. Suuder Khan was sent deep into Europe with the Metann Clan. Suuder leads his troops through Transylvania, Vienna, and Toledo, intending to finally lay siege to Granada.
Join us for Combat, all manner of! Feasting on a sumptuous day board of 13th century Andalusi foods prepared by Ibrahim al-Rashid ibn Musa! Provincial A&S Championship! Bartertown!
Commons April 19th 2019
Our provincial commons this month is coming up next Friday, April 19th. As several of us have noted, it is Passover. We may have a smaller than usual turnout. Officers, please submit your reports and read the minutes.
As always, all are welcome to attend. We will meet in Lions End, at the Greenvale Townhouse diner, in the small area to the right as you enter, between the cashier and our usual back room. We will assemble at 7pm. Business portion of the evening should start at 8pm, with socializing afterwards.
I expect the meeting to be relatively short. Topics include Coronation post-event report, and Day of the Decameron pre-event report. Officer reports are requested by Wednesday evening, April 17th, with any additional agenda items you would like to discuss.
