Welcome to Ponte Alto. Eine Kleine etc. is the third first in what we have 
called the Little Event with a Great Big Feast. It differs from the average 
event in that you spend the day shmoozing, eating, listening to music, 
eating, gaming, eating, dancing, eating....well, you get the idea. This 
year's version will be German in theme, consisting of food made from period 
recipes redacted from a German cookbook translated by Master Tirloch. Come 
hungry.

We have costumer and archers aplenty here, but sadly no equestrian. There 
are equestrian sports, and you'd think that a Barony in the middle of horse 
country would have some folks involved in it, but alas, no. This is not to 
say that you shouldn't become involved in the SCA equestrian activities. 
Who knows, you may spark an interest up here and get people to join you.

I'm sure I speak for all when I say we look forward to meeting you. Until 
then I remain,

In service,
