[MR] Nottinghill Coill's Baronial Birthday & Investiture!

[Sir Janos of Cyddlain Downs]

    Below you will find the flyer for the Investiture of the Baron &
Baroness of Notthinghill Coill.  We urge all of you to send in your
reservation soon as I have planned an incredible time for everyone to
celebrate the day.  From a Ball with lots of dancing at night, to an
incredible feast that I promise you will not leave hungry, especially if you
are a carnivore like me!  There will be more fighting then even the most
gung-ho fighter can handle, archery will be aplenty, and some of the finest
A&S works will be on display or in competition.  If you have seen me at many
of your events, I ask that you make the trip south and try one of ours, you
won't regret it.  And as a special treat, I have 4 years of collected
alcohols that I will be making available to all who wish to sample some
truly delicious wares.  Yes, you heard right, it is a NOT a dry site!  We
even plan on opening a special bottle of 15 year old Scotch.  So come down
and help us toast the new Baron & Baroness of Notthinghill Coill!

Coill's Baronial Birthday & Investiture

Camp Gravatt, Aiken County, SC

March 26th-28th 2004



            We invite one and all to come and join us in welcoming William
Welwyn and Julian Hungerford as the new Baron and Baroness of Nottinghill
Coill.  This being the 24th Anniversary of the founding of this wonderful
Barony, we have planned a full day of activities for one and all.



            There will be competitions in Heavy, Rapier, Archery, and Arts &
Sciences to choose the Champions for their new Excellencies.  We urge you to
check the website birthday.nottinghillcoill.org for the latest updates on
the details for the tournaments.  There will also be many children's
activities during the day.



            The evening will entail a wondrous feast prepared by THL Bruno
with the help of a superb staff. Contact THL Bruno at 803-642-2287 with any
dietary concerns. The Canton of Cyddlain Downs will be hosting an Evening
Ball.  The list of dances will be posted on the website soon.

            The site is a large and beautiful wooded area with a lake and
dozens of cabins and tent sites (see pictures of tents & cabins on Website),
and is discreetly wet (no original containers) so bring your meads and wine
for the feast.  When making an On-site reservation please specify if you
have a preference for a cabin, on-site tent, or bringing your own tent, and
if bringing your own, whether it is a modern or period tent.  Also please
let us know whether you would prefer the quiet camp or the noisy camp.  The
tents already on-site are huge and will sleep 8 people comfortably.  The
cabins have 8-10 bunk beds, they are only screened in but have power.  If
you wish to reserve a tent or a cabin as a group, that can be arranged.
There will be a map of the site on the website if you would like to pick a
spot.
