[MR] Storvik Spear Practice

[Teufelskerl001 at aol.com]

As I feared, it looks as if there is a nasty storm headed for the DC  area.  
Along with the wet conditions that are already present, I feel it  would be 
too unpleasant to hold Spear Practice tonight.  Should anyone show  up, I will 
hold a Spear Making Class instead, but Spear Practice itself will be  put off 
until next week.
 
Same Spear Time, Same Spear Place!

Please forward to any who you'd feel would be interested.
 
This is a reminder that this Friday, April 22nd, there will be the  inaugural 
Storvik Weekly Spear Practice - SHOULD WEATHER ALLOW.  If it's  
raining/hailing/snowing/tornado or other inhospitable weather condition, the  practice will 
be delay until the following Friday.
 
The weekly spear class will cover the use of the spear, beginning  with the 
basics and continuing through advanced team techniques, focusing  on melee 
combat.  Note that this isn't a Fighter Practice but a  Martial Arts class; if 
you've taken any martial arts before you will be familiar  with the class 
structure.  Class will begin promptly at 6 p.m., with  warm-ups followed by basics 
including footwork and use of the spear both right  and left handed (you WILL be 
able to use a spear with either hand by the end of  the classes), leading to 
advanced techniques of two or more spears working as a  team.

Spear Class, Fridays, 6 p.m. to approximately 8 p.m.; Bring armour  and spear 
if you have them, but the are not necessary to take the class.   This class 
is open to ALL who wish to attend, but is VERY beginner  friendly.

Class takes place @ 9006 Simpson Lane, Clinton, MD.  Take  your best route to 
I-495 around DC.  Take exit 7A (Route 5 South) to  Waldorf.  After 5 miles, 
take the Woodyard Road exit, staying to the left  on the exit ramp, so that you 
turn left on to Woodyard.  At the first  light, turn right onto Simpson Lane. 
 Simpson Lane will curve back the way  you came, then veer to the left; 
follow it around the curve approximately a  quarter of a mile.  9006 is on the 
left, white 2 story Cape Cod with a  screened front porch.  The driveway can hold 
8 cars if everyone is very  friendly, but if that is filled, there is an empty 
field that people may park in  that is back a little way and across the road.

If you have any questions,  please don't hesitate to contact me.

Please note that this class WILL  begin promptly at 6 p.m., if you aren't 
there, the class will begin without you  and you will have to catch up.


YIS,
