Hello,
The weather radar indicates that the rain has moved off to the east.
So, for those who are willing to get a bit muddy, heavy practice is on.

Fencing Practice Cancelled Due to Weather
There will be no practice today since it has been raining since yesterday with no signs of stopping.
There will also be no practice next Sunday due to War Practice. The field will be open Friday and Saturday so come out and fence as much as you want.
We will resume practice Sunday May 27 at Washington Blvd after the Barony Meeting.

A and S — Fletching — Sunday, May 13th
=============================================
FLETCHING!
Yes, it is Mother’s Day. Yes, it may rain; if it does, we may cancel this week’s A&S. Call me for verification if you wish, I will also post on FB.
FLETCHING!
Tomorrow/Sunday is A&S in BMDL, and this week’s class is on modern fletching, and will be taught by Master Urho Waltterinen. This is only the second time that Urho has taught for us, so please take advantage of this rare opportunity. Because this is a time-consuming process, as we must wait for the glue to dry, we are starting a little earlier than usual at 12:30. All of the jigs, glue, shafts, feathers and all the other things will be brought for us to learn on. Thanks, Urho!!
Location: Washington Boulevard martial practice site
Address: Allegheny River Blvd and Washington Blvd.
Directions: http://www.debatablelands.org/martial/fight_directions.php
Time: 12:30 PM. Weather permitting!
NEW Standard disclaimers here:
We are much more accessible to our less mobile friends, have free parking, and a pet-friendly site. Yay!
However, keep in mind that you should bring everything you need for your comfort including a chair, a beverage or snack, bug spray, sunscreen, hat, cabana boy, musical instruments, boots, sun umbrella, foul weather gear, etc., etc., etc. Also, the site has a porta-john and no running water so please make appropriate preparations.
I will have a table and a jug of water so that you can refill your water bottles or mugs.
If you need assistance or have questions, please call or text me at 724-759-3333.
Thank you for asking! These meetings are free and there is no materials charge, as we are generously supported by the Barony and by those who teach.
See you there! Elss Augsburg

May Barony Meeting – NEW DATE
Due to the third Sunday of the month falling on the final day of War Practice, I am moving the Barony Meeting to the following week, 27 May 2018. I realize that this is Memorial Day Weekend but the next available date wouldn’t be until June, which is too late. The meeting will start at 2:00 p.m. and will be at the Summer Fighter Practice site at the small park at the intersection of Washington Blvd and Allegheny River Blvd.

Come join us in making new Baronial baldrics! On Wednesday, May 16 and Wednesday, May 23, from 7:30 – 9:30 there will be special sewing circles at Mistress Ts’vee’a’s house (5167 Rosecrest Dr. Pgh 15201) to turn ordinary gold fabric and comet patches into Baronial Baldrics!
