Feast of the Seven Deadly Sins - February 12, 2011


The theme this year is the Hundred Years War. There will be games and activities related to this theme, so start thinking about which side you wish to support – the French or the English. Keep in mind that the Delftwood Baron is English, but his lovely Baroness is French... :) Alliances shifted frequently during this time period, which could make for an interesting day.

There will be a variety of fencing tournaments, including the selection of the Delftwood Baronial Fencing Champion in a one hour bear-pit tournament with wounds retained. Other tournaments will follow. The site opens at 9am, and closes at 9pm.Click Here for the schedule of events!

The Baronial Bardic Championship will also be held during the event. Click here to read your invitation to attend from current Baronial Champion Éadaoin ingen Chanacáin!
