Join us as we celebrate the
disciplines of archery and thrown weapons. Camp in the shade of majestic
trees, hear the sound of arrows coursing through the air, and
listen to the solid "thunk" as knives and axes hit their
target.
This is the fifth year for
Archery Academy - "Weapons in Flight." We continue the
tradition of bringing the archery and thrown weapons community
together to learn, develop skills and enjoy each other's
company.
Ithra Classes:
Pre-registration for classes is closed. A few classes still
have room. Some teachers MAY be willing to take additional
students at the event. It may be worth asking.
Otherwise, the Chancellor will be able to tell you where your class
is held. The class schedule will be posted at event
central.

StormHunter -
Their Excellencies Ivon and Hlutwige, Lord and Lady Stromgard, will
sponsor a tournament to select their StormHunter (Missile Weapon
Champion) on Sunday. Anyone interested needs to submit their
letters of intent. If you have not already submitted it, you
can do so on Saturday evening at Court. There will also be a
short court on Sunday prior to the tournament for those just coming
for the tourney.
The tournament will be very
interactive. It should be a lot of fun and challenging.

beautiful wooded site near Sandy Oregon, 22 miles from

been drained to allow salmon to migrate up the Bull Run
river. There will be biffy's (including one that ADA
accessible and hand washing stations. Bring a jug to fill for
water. Use your favorite mapping program to 41515 SE Thomas

Site hours: 3:00pm on Friday the
8th of August to 6:00pm on Sunday the 10th.
Note that the above Weather and Map information is generated from the site address and can be easily confused. The weather will say if its for the branch or for the site. It will be for the site if the site can be found, but this again is not always the case, and if the site is some distance from the branch then the weather may be different.
