[Ponte Alto] Greetings and Well Met!

[Jeff French]

Diego,
     Welcome! within the Barony, we pursue almost all of your  
interest. Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons, we practice both  
armoured combat and rapier combat. Occasionally, we do dance practices  
at the Sunday fighter practices as well. I believe there is also a  
calligraphy & illumination workshop once a month as well. Check the  
Baronial website for the most recent details:

Enjoy,
-Jurgen
