[MR] Winter Solstice Updated Flyer (11/15/2006)

[Rachel/Rozsa]

Winter Solstice
Barony of the Sacred Stone
Lincolnton, NC

The leaves have turned to glorious hues and have fallen to the ground.  Man 
and beast alike have gathered food in preparation for winter.  Soon, the 
land will be lulled into sleep.  As the world outside gets colder, we gather 
by the fire to spend our short winter days and long winter nights along 
friends and family.  During the day, we will cheer on our warriors while 
they test their mettle on the tourney field or show their prowess with the 
bow.  Atlantia's artisans will also be showing their
talent and skill in the arts and sciences.  When the day grows short and the 
air grows colder, we will gather inside to enjoy a sumptuous feast and an 
array of entertainment.
