Please also remember that feast is full to capacity and the waitlist is already at 20.

Any who find they need a refund can should inquire at Check-In as to how refunds are obtained. If you do not attend the event as planned and require a refund, contact either our Baronial Exchequer as soon as possible or myself. (info at http://hawkwood.atlantia.sca.org/index.html )

Below is the full length flyer, followed by the planned schedule for the day. Please contact me directly with any and all questions.

Coronation of Sinclair Hawkins & Kari Kyst
April 4th-6th, 2008
 
                Louise IX of France has died before Edward I of England could join his Crusade, so Edward has launched his own ninth Crusade into the Holy Land himself. In a time when the Crusades were drawing to an end and the Holy Land was plagued with unrest, an opportunity of peace and great celebration has come again to our Kingdom. Atlantia calls home all those who are able to answer, be they Crusader, warrior, artisan, laborer or supporter. Let it resound throughout the Lands to come to the Barony of Hawkwood to witness the Royal Coronation of Sir Sinclair Hawkins and Baroness Kari Kyst.
 
Site: Camp Pinnacle; 4080 Little River Road, Hendersonville, NC 28739. Site opens 6pm on Fri.; closes 12pm on Sun. No personal pets allowed. Fire only in pre-existing pit, if weather allows. Alcohol allowed per mundane and SCA rules/laws. Most all amenities are within ten minutes of site.
 
Martial and Other Activities: A quest reminiscent of the journey to the Crusades is planned for all to enjoy. Fighting, both heavy and light, will be a part of this quest. Other fighting opportunities will likely be planned as there is ample space for all kinds of fighting.
 
Youth Combat: Fighting will be held and there will be specifically a competition to help Their Highness choose the Youth Combat Champion for Their reign. 
 
Arts &Sciences: Tempore Atlantia’s competition will focus on 1250-1492. Please contact Mistress Iseulte of the Red Cliffs (krista.moyerATgmailDOTcom) if you have questions regarding this specific competition.
 
Youth's competition: Best use of Spike in any medium. Young artisans of Atlantia, come show your skill and creativity by creating works of art featuring Spike. Entrants must be under the age of 17.  Documentation not required (but always encouraged!)
 
Kingdom Award/Order medallions - Help spread the pageantry of Atlantia and display your creativity and skill in crafting award medallions depicting the Awards and Orders of Atlantia for Their Majesties to award during Their reign.  No limit as to number of medallions, style or construction - all medallions submitted by an artisan will count as a single body of work/entry.  No documentation required.
 
Best use of Chocolate - Chocolate has been around for almost 2000 years, from the discovery and use of the cocoa bean by the Maya to it's introduction to Europe by the conquering Spanish.  Thank goodness you no longer need to be wealthy to enjoy it!  Use this divine concoction to create sotleties or other creations featuring this fabulous "vegetable."  Documentation, list of ingredients required.
 
Best use of Wool - Sponsored by the Company of the Silver Spindle of Atlantia.  Wool has been used for centuries for everything from clothing to ships' sails and saddle pads.  The Spinners of Atlantia love to spin woolen yarns, and are interested to see what other artisans can do with the product of our wooly friends.  Documentation required.
 
Heraldry Consult Table: Get all your answers and submit your name and/or device in one stop! Mistress Alisoun MacCoul of Elphane will be offering this opportunity for all to take care of their heraldry needs. If you are a herald that would like to assist with the consult table, please contact Mistress Alisoun as soon as possible.
 
Feast: Dinner will be comprised of a tour down the path taken in order to travel to the Crusades, from a culinary point of view. Baron Thorgrimr inn Kyrri and his kitchen staff will prepare multiple dishes to delight the palate and gratify the tummy to contentment. Seating is tightly limited to 100 and cost $9.00 per person, so please reserve ASAP if you would like to take part in this demonstration of gastronomic excess.
                A separate feast for young children will be offered free of charge. Their food will consist of hot-dogs/fishsticks, mac-n-cheese, green beans, and the like. This will be served during Their Majesties evening court and supervision will be provided. We *must* have a head count, however, so please pre-reserve space for your child to take part. Contact the Head Cook, Baron Thorgrimr at thorgrimrATbellsouthDOTnet all for questions regarding the feast.
