[Ponte Alto] Upcomming demos for July

[james barker]

Hi everyone

We have two Sunday demos for Fairfax County Libraries in July, they are 
simple general medieval demos for kids, I typically take in some clothing 
arms and armor for the kids to look at and pass around some maille and armor 
bits for kids to look at and they love it. Kids also like the mini siege 
engines. Any other projects or suggestions are welcome; please email if you 
have and idea. What I would like is a few people to volunteer to help me 
with these demos, it will only be a few hours of time for set up and talk, I 
think we are scheduled for an hour. We can only take a few people because 
this is an indoor event.

Here are the locations and times (Sundays):

Pohick Regional Library, Burke VA. July 16 at 2pm
Reston Regional Library, Reston VA. July 23 12:30pm

I feel these are important because the libraries have land and I have talked 
about doing book fairs and other such events where we might be able to set 
up a full SCA demo with fighting outside. This request came from the Library 
head so it is a good contact for us. Also I would like to take a flyer like 
the one made for Blood Bath to the demos to hand out to any parents who 
might be interested.



Also we have been asked to do a demo for 6 to 12 year olds on the 25th 
(Tuesday) at 2pm at a library in Falls Church. They would love a King Arthur 
talk for their summer reading program. This is not related to the two above. 
I told the person who made the request this might be hard for us to fulfill 
being a weekday but I would see what I can do. If anyone has time to go talk 
please contact me.

One more demo may come down the line for July, I am unsure at the moment, 
but we have no request after July at the moment.



Thanks
