Come and enjoy a weekend with us as we enjoy the glory of the mountains in the springtime.

The weekend will include a double elimination tournament, a singles bridge battle, a weird weapon tourney, a peasant sale (so cheap a peasant can afford to shop), a wonderful Greek feast with a cooking contest during the third remove, and maybe a few extra suprises for the populace.

Feast

Boars and Bruises will be serving a Greek feast with a cooking contest during the third remove.

More information published as it becomes available.

Cooking contest: Fix a dish of your choice to share with the populace the feast. Our feast space is limited to 50 available spaces. To be served during the third remove the dish should have a reasonable size serving for appx. 20, or give about 50 a taste of the dish.  The idea is not to feed the hall on your entry alone.  Documentation is not required.  All dishes must have a medieval flair and an ingrediant list to be presented with the dish.  There will be some coleman stoves available for heating, first come, first served
