St. David's 30th Year Celebration*
Porter College Dining Hall
301 Heller Drive
UCSC, Santa Cruz, CA 95064
/October 14th, 2006/

Come one, come all! Join in the merriment as the College of St. David 
celebrates its 30th anniversary! We'll have Prize Tourneys for both 
heavy and fencing fighters, Bardic Competitions, Storytelling, and 
Artisan's Row for A&S and merchant display - all in a festive 
indoor/outdoor picnic setting on the lovely UC Santa Cruz campus. Bring 
food and an appetite, musical instruments (preferably ones you can 
*play*), dancing dogs, period games, and anything else to add to the fun.

What is Artisan's Row, you ask? Well, it is the usual A&S display, but 
with a twist. It is also intended to provide an opportunity for 
attendees to display any SCA-appropriate items they wish to sell. Due to 
university rules, any actual sales must take place privately off-site or 
after the event, but this is a good way to interest potential buyers. 
Those wishing to participate in Artisan's Row should contact the 
autocrat in advance to request space.

*Site Fee:* No fee, but donations are most welcome.

*Schedule:* Site opens at 11am. Heavy & fencing prize tourneys begin at 
noon, with bardic activities to follow. Site Closes at 6pm.

*Autocrat:* Henrico Di Firenze (Ryan Reynard) -- P.O. Box 299, Felton, 
CA 95018. -- Email: saberbear at sbcglobal.net -- Phone: 831-359-8303

*Activities:*

           Heavy Prize Tourney
           Fencing Prize Tourney and/or Demo
           Artisans Row
           Tales of St. David's History (Real & Imagined)
           "Bard's Choice" Competition (Any form, just entertain us!)
           "3-Words From a Hat" Competition
           Punning Competition 

*FOOD:* Due to university rules, event coordinators may not provide food 
for attendees - so no official feast is planned and we're not allowed to 
officially organize a potluck. However, it is perfectly acceptable for 
attendees to bring food to share in a potluck-type fashion, if they 
like. So instead, we're having a great big picnic Bring enough for 
yourself, and if you can/want, bring some to share. Plenty of space and 
tables will be made available for this at the event.

*Things to Bring:* Tables and chairs will be available indoors, but you 
should bring your own or blankets to sit on for the outdoor portion of 
event, and of course, your own feast gear.

*Directions:* Take your best route to Hwy 1 North of the Hwy 17 & Hwy 1 
junction. Upon entering Santa Cruz, turn right onto Mission Street. Turn 
right onto Bay Avenue, then left onto High Street. Turn right onto 
Heller Drive (UCSC's west entrance). Follow the SCA signs that will be 
posted on or near each stop sign until you reach Porter College Dining 
Hall.
