PM<BR><B>To:</B> SCA Atlantia List<BR><B>Subject:</B> [MR] Ideas for SCA Event
site near Elkin, NC<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ideas for site in addition to what Phillip posted
on the Merry Rose--dream list:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) Covered dance floor, good acoustics, place for
musical groups of all sorts, designed for good recording as well, also
designed well for court.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Might be combination feast hall to start, but
would be nice to have them adjoining but separate eventually. With
bathrooms. Maybe royalty meeting rooms. Feast kitchens with all
necessary storage, prepping, cook ware, serving ware. Place for guests to wash
feast ware. 90% or more of site accessible. Entire site designed
according to permaculture principles, fire safety, and
sustainability. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2)Living greywater treatment system.
Possibly local living blackwater treatment system as well.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) Area for merchants to inhabit temporarily
designed like a medieval plaza-market place with hidden infrastructure for
health department approved cafes and set up for street cafes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Room for street musicians.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Or possibly some may be rented permanently with
attached cabin or 2nd floor cabin as in #4 </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>for merchants to camp at their place of
business.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) A section where people can permanently
annually rent cabins and/or tent spaces with permanent medieval looking
sheds. Or maybe do it like an HOA/Condo where they own the building, but
rent the land. Each one to be surround by a small chunk of land where
people would maintain permanent gardens including fruit/nut trees, berries,
herb gardens, and annual vegetables, fruits, and flowers. Space for
outdoor oven and/or cooking pit. Bees optional. Encouragement to
use permaculture and biointensive gardening techniques. Everything done
organically. In my ideal of a situation, the best combination of a
permanent resort rental and a community garden plot. Medieval looking clothes
lines. An option to rent a gardener for those visiting less frequently
or skipping a couple of weeks. Clean water at each site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Fully plumbed, but disguised plumbing for the
cabins. Option of composting toilets. Possibly disguised electricity and
internet access in some sections. I would love to see stone cabins where
it would be safe to have wood stoves and real candle/lantern lighting as
well. For people really into gardening, stone cabins with small
glass(modernly tempered safety glass, no plastic) green houses, and also with
root cellars. Medievally disguised fuel conserving Lorena or rocket stoves.
Composting at each house/garden site. Space for solar food dryers. Requirement
that shelter be medieval looking along with visible contents and 85%+ of
actual contents. Possibly one neighborhood with people devoted to 99%
levels of medieval reproduction, a more permanent version of the camp with
similar goals at Pennsic. Option to rent these out when not being used by
regular owner(and maid service to prepare for renters).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4b) Some sort of neighborhood gathering place
such as a fire pit, with acoustic buffering from the
cabins/tents.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5) A medieval park near the dance floor designed
to be beautiful in and of itself (maintained by volunteer garden organization)
which is also designed to be a beautiful place to have and photograph weddings
and to have outdoor concerts. Nearby, but not visible parking to
accommodate modern guests. Wooden folding chairs that could be rented
also as well as reception tents if more room than dance hall was needed.
Place for wedding party to change clothes and lock up valuables.
Amphitheater.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5) Poultry section--sell eggs at
events.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>6) Goats--sell goat cheese at
events.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>7) Sheep--sell wool at events. Design
grounds so sheep can serve as lawn mowers perhaps using mobile non obviously
electric fences during nonevent times.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>8) Workshop and classroom building made to look
like a medieval university or castle. Permanent spaces for woodworking,
metal work, pottery, painting, weaving, cooking, bread making, glass making,
stained glass. Multiple use classrooms for less messy or less tool
intensive classes. Maybe a large room in this that could serve as a
church as well as a concert hall or theater. Good natural light so as
many things as possible can be done in medieval manner. Option to use
slide projectors or computers for presentations. Hardware and access for
hanging banners. One side to have steps and look good for group photo or
wedding shoots. Possibly design this building to be used as severe storm
shelter.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>9) Safe smooth path/streets that are lined with
gas lights that look like medieval street lanterns or actual lanterns that are
lit for events. Stone walls to edge the streets similar to the ones on
the Skyline Drive.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10) Interesting medieval names for the
streets.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>People, plants, events, places.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>11) Edible (or useful) landscaping everywhere
taking aesthetics and permaculture into account. Plants chosen to
attract birds and butterflies. Birdhouses.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>12) A wood lot where all firewood for the site is
grown on site and sections are also managed for future wood for fine
woodworking and willows for coppicing for basketry.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>13) Fish pond with rental fishing privileges with
conservation catch limits.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>14) Swimming ponds planted with natural plant
cleaners. Waterfall into one of the swimming ponds.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>15) Recycling. Attempts to avoid the use of
any non composting or non recyclable items on site. The requirement to
pack out any item which is not recyclable or compostable.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>16) Edge parking. At least one cart
owned/rented for each site for moving items from car to site or around
site. Wooden/metal , maybe hidden/disguised bicycle wheels. No cars
except for temporary emergency vehicles on site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>17) Hiking trails with labels for trees,
wildflowers. Sledding hill. Cross country skiing trails. Riding
trails.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>18) Post Office</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>19) Equestrian facilities</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>20) Two Tiered Community Supported Agriculture
System growing wide variety of items ( some combo with options of Fruit,
vegetables, meat, eggs, cheese, honey, flowers, herbs, nuts, firewood, fiber
plants, dye plants). Option 1--enough for Friday night to Sunday
lunch. Option 2--enough for a week with people taking home the other 5
days worth. May be challenges keeping everything safely
cool.</FONT></DIV>

coverings for 50 gallon plastic water dispensers. Paths for carts to
access fighting areas, yet not hinder fighters.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>25) Laundry facilities. Encouragement to
use clotheslines rather than dryers. Perhaps some bicycle or hand
cranked ringer washers in addition to electric ones.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>26) Children's play area using naturally rot
resistant lumber when wood is needed rather than toxic treated lumber.
Midievally themed play structures. Castle like tree house or pseudo-tree
house.</FONT></DIV>
