Barmaids Event, Barony of Arn Hold

3/23/2015

0 Comments

 
Our barony recently held an event called Barmaids, a Knight at the Tavern, with pub/tavern themed activites, as well as our polling for a new Baron and Baroness.  There were dice games, barroom brawls for both rapier and heavy fighters, thrown weapons competitions (all based around dueling after a night at the pub, of course), and a feast to raise funds for the Arn Hold Brewers' Guild, which is headed by my husband.  New heavy and rapier champions for the barony were also selected.

I was particularly proud of the feast we prepared.  My husband made bratwurst soaked in homebrewed beer and grilled, and I made sauerkraut in a variety of flavors, and rolls made with spent grain from the brewing process.  There was also homemade soda (both root beer and cream soda), and salad.  We sold out, and the food seemed to go over very well.

Congratulations to our incoming Baron and Baroness, Balenor and Teaghan, who will do a great job, and to our new champions.  To close, here's a couple shots of my first time participating in thrown weapons, and one of my sisters and I, who both wore red dresses that day.

    I like to: play with fleece, spin, knit, weave, sew, garden, cook, eat, bake bread, dance, read, sing, and learn new things.
