Sapphire Joust X
May 22-25, 2009
Barony of Caer Mear

Come and journey to Caer Mear for Sapphire Joust X!

As in years past, this promises to be an event that's not to be missed.  We
promise a fun-filled weekend of heavy and rapier fighting,
youth rapier and heavy fighting, archery and thrown weapons as well as a
wide variety of Arts and Sciences.
Heavy Fighting will include a number of tournaments including the Sapphire
Tournament, a Tournament of Chivalry, A Novice Tournament, an
Order of the Kraken tournament, a St. Aiden Heraldic Display Team Tournament
and a Rose Tournament.  These tournaments all promise to be
exciting to watch and the participation should be something of which legends
are made.  We will also have a ravine battle for those who
need a little more fighting "love.

Rapier Fighting will include the Sapphire Tournament as well as a Ravine and
Woods Battle.

Arts and Sciences will have three tents.  One will be for competitions and
displays; one for classes and one for artisans to gather under to
meet other artisans.  The competitions will be the Best use of Sapphire Gem,
and Best Interpretation of the Baronial Order Medallions
(all medallions will be given to their Excellencies of Caer Mear to use at
their discretion) and a brewing competition.

There will be an open display for those wishing to show their current works
in progress as well as any other projects they may want to display.  Classes
will be held during the
weekend.  Those interested in teaching should contact the A&S coordinator.
She will be producing a list of classes and will be
accepting registrations once the list has been compiled.

The A&S gathering tent is for those who would like to come and meet other
artisans.  You may bring a project, but you are not required to stay
for the day.  You may come and go as you see fit.
