Carolingia's Low Company will also b e in attendance\, hosting their traditional summer Throwing Things At Thing s Gathering! So come along and enjoy the finest games that involve... well\ , throwing things at things.
We will have water and lemonade availabl e\, but encourage attendees to bring picnics or snacks\, as no dayboard wil l be provided. Please consider bringing chairs or blankets for sitting outs ide. There should also be room for pop-ups\, if desired for shade.
We expect the Rapier Tourney\, as well as Low Company activities\, to begin a round 2pm. Rapier pickups will be happening all day\, and we'll have melee activities after the Tourney.

best.
After the fighters have been tested\, a final will be announce d. The finalists must compete in a best 2 of 3 blows\, bringing their best equipment and highest level of martial skill.
Notes: In order to serv e as champion\, one must be capable of attending events with Their Excellen cies and be able to keep safe and store the Baronial Champions sword\, taba rd\, and collar.
