[MR] Last Chance Event Flyer

[Lady Rhiannon]

I apologize to those good gentles who receive this more than once, but 
please please please, feel free to post this far and wide to any other 
lists you might belong to.  The more the Merrier!

The No-Longer Incipient Canton of River's Point is proud to present to you 
The LAST Chance.  Yep!  We're doing it again!  Do you have a new piece of 
armor you want to try out before Pennsic?  Do you need that last chance at 
authorizing at a new weapons form?  Do you want to get together with 
(hopefully) hundreds of your fighting bretheren in a real "smack down" of a 
Melee practice?  Do you want to come just South of Richmond and hang out 
with cool folks at a local College?  Would you like the opportunity to get 
valuable pointers on your fighting?  Do you just want to go somewhere and 
have fun?

Well, do we have an event for YOU... It's called Last Chance... Why do we 
call it Last Chance, you might ask... well it's as the name implies.. it's 
your "Last Chance" to get authorized and your "Last Chance to get in a 
Melee practice before everyone starts the great pack up and migration to 
Pennsylvania.

Last Chance IV will be held at the "usual" site, which is the Richard Bland 
College Soccer Field (110301 Johnson Road, Petersburg, VA  23805) on July 
31, 2004.

In case you're wondering about site accommodations, keep in mind that this 
is a very low-key event... There are no buildings except for what we bring 
to the site.  Porta-castles will be provided, of course) and there will be 
minimal shade available, but please, if you have it, bringing your shade 
with you would be a good thing (tm).  Pets, unfortunately, are not allowed 
and there is no feast, but there are several restaurants in the area and we 
will be providing maps.  There will also be NO children's activities 
scheduled at this event, so please plan accordingly.  There will be an area 
set aside for A&S display, so please feel free to bring your projects!

Now.. as for the fighting.. there will be heavy and rapier fighting as well 
as combat archery and siege weapons.  Unfortunately, there will not be 
thrown weapons.
