Fair Atlantians- Your assitance is requested in helping in the efforts to
defeat and win the bountiful Sylvan Glen for our own.
9th Annual Siege of Glengary - September 24-26, 2004
Hedgesville, WV
Important Update----Date , site, and price changes!
Long envious of our lush valleys and fertile farmlands, the Barony of
Highland Foorde is once again rallying the armies of the mighty Kingdom of Atlantia
to attack our small shire in an effort to take our bounty for their own. We
have faced this threat before with the help of our friends and allies, but
there is reason for great alarm this year, as we fear that the Atlantians have
discovered the source of our shire’s prosperity.
For generations, the Sylver Apple of Sylvan Glen, bestowed upon us by the
Great Sylver Stag, has provided us with bountiful harvests and good fortune It
has been our most jealously guarded secret, but now that it has been
revealed, what will become of Sylvan Glen?
Join us as we rediscover our past and fight for our future at the Camp Frame
4-H Campground. This new site features a 350-seat feast hall, lots of room
for classes, an indoor fencing arena and 200+ bed Viking longhouses (dormitory
style cabins) and best of all, there is a decrease in the camping fee even
with all of these amenities. Camp Frame Rd (no street number), Hedgesville,
WV, Sept. 24-26, 2004. The site will open on Friday, Sept. 24 at 6 pm and close
