[MR] Coastal Region Fighter Practice

[Sayyida Halima al-Shafi'i of Raven's Cove]

Come one, come all to the Coastal Region Fighter practice on June 13, 
2004 in the Stronghold of Raven's Cove.  There will be heavy and rapier 
practices.  His Most Excellent Excellency Baron Alejandro has graciously 
agreed to teach "Marshalling 101" and "Rapier Marshalling 101", and we 
are currently seeking someone to teach "Heavy Marshalling 101" in order 
to round out our day of martial activities and education.  We will have 
Arts and Science Classes as well.

There will be a potluck/barbecue on site.  Bring all your own food and 
drink.  There are bathroom facilities (real flushies!) and a water 
fountain, but no electricity.  There are several grills available for 
our use.  There is a generously-sized picnic shelter, extensive 
playgrounds for the children (both big kids and tiny tots), and sand 
volleyball courts.  Also, it is located next to the city skateboard park 
(helmet, knee and elbow pads required) for those bringing anyone who 
wishes to skate.  There is enough land to hold melee practice.

The location is at the Jacksonville Commons Rec Center Park in 
Jacksonville, NC.  Here are directions:

Coming from Hwy 17, turn onto Western extension 
by Walmart, go through the stoplight by Marine Chevrolet and Geoffries to 
the next stoplight.  Turn right and go to the stop sign.  Turn left and 
follow road around; the skate park is on the right side.
