[Ponte Alto] SCA Demo opportunity in Arlington VA Saturday April 1st.

[james barker]

Hello fellow Pontoons, we have the chance to participate in a mini ren faire 
in Arlington at the Arlington County Central Library on April first. They 
are hoping we will bring crafts people and bards to add to the flavor of the 
events and we have permission to even hold fighting demos. The catch is it 
goes right against coronation. So I am sending out feelers to see if anyone 
wants to go to the demo and do we have any Martials not attending 
coronation? I normally go to every demo I schedule but I am already paid to 
go to coronation myself so I need someone to organize things the day of the 
demo but I can still help get all the back end stuff set up.

If you are interested in helping out or with this demo please email me at 
flonzy at hotmail.com

I am waiting on word to come back on setting a tent up for fighters if we 
get people able to do the demo.




Here is the add they have on Craig’s list:

Renaissance Faire – Five Skilled Craftspeople Needed

Are you a skilled craftsperson?  Do you do Renaissance crafts?  Would you 
like to sell your crafts to a family audience?  We want you!

HESPERUS will sponsor a free Renaissance Faire on Saturday, April 1, 2006 
from 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM at the Arlington County Central Library, located 
at 1015 North Quincy Street, Arlington, Virginia 22201 (between the Ballston 
and Virginia Square Metro stations on the Metro Orange Line). This is a 
wonderful opportunity to serve the community while you retain all revenue 
from your craft sales. Craftspeople are requested to appear in Renaissance 
garb at the Faire.

Craftspeople will be able to demonstrate and sell their crafts at this 
family event that kicks off National Library Week.  You will need your own 
display table and cover (in case of cold weather) and you will be placed 
outside the doors to the Library.

sell, what the prices of your different crafts are, and any photos you have 
available of yourself and/or your crafts.  We will contact you regarding
