Again, please pass this information along to all your local groups!

Thanks so much...

Greetings All!

If you are like me, you are shocked that January is almost over!

We are sure some of you are starting to work on those all-important tax
refunds! 
In an effort to make sure that everyone gets their Gulf Wars XX reservations
in, 
online registrations have been extended untl February 26th.

You can find all the registraion information here:

We know everyone's budgets are tight in this economy and that you have to be
choosy when thinking about your vacation plans. So, why should you come to
Gulf 
Wars?? Well here is a few reasons.....

* Come for the Combat in all it's forms! Armored, Rapier, Archery, and Siege
weaponry!

* Come for the pageantry of the Equestrian activities from the grand
procession 
of the Kingdoms, to equestrian games to mounted combat!

* Come see the beauty of hound racing and get the opportunity to see these
graceful animals run like the wind!

* Come for the classes, and displays of artistic wonder both in the
competitions and on our Artisans row!

* Come see our Early Period Life encampment where you can walk among long
houses! 

* Come see Al Mahala and become immersed in all things Middle Eastern!
* Come for the hospitality, with the hosting Kingdoms offering you food and
beverage beyond your wildest dreams!

* Come for the shopping with merchant upon merchant, many of whom you don't
get 
at other wars! 

* Come for the Bakery with fresh baked goods daily and Odyssey coffee!

* Come for the Green Dragon Inn...our own 15th Century Tavern!
* Come for the Shows at our performing arts stage with bardic presentations,
plays and competitions. 

* Come for the Balls! With European dancing daily!
* Come in a week early THIS YEAR and you can go to Mardi Gras in New Orleans
(Mardi Gras day is March 8th, 2011)

* Come for the KNOWNE WORLD PARTY! If you missed the amazing October Fest of
last year, fear not...the Knowne World Party staff have another amazing
party 
theme to knock your socks off this year!

 

COME JOIN US FOR FRIENDSHIP AND FUN at the FRIENDLIEST WAR IN THE KNOWNE
WORLD! 
With all the activities the SCA has to offer, and may more reasons besides,
we 
think you should make Gulf Wars XX apart of your vacation planning for 2011
