<p>
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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Site Fee:</strong> No fee, but donations are most welcome.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Schedule:</strong> Site opens at 11am. Heavy & fencing
prize tourneys begin at noon, with bardic activities to follow. Site
Closes at 6pm.

<strong>FOOD:</strong> 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.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Things to Bring:</strong> 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.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Directions:</strong> 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.
