Overall Event Schedule:
Greetings citizens of AEthelmearc!
It is with much excitement that the Shire of Riversedge invites the kingdom to join us on Saturday, November 14, 2015, for the Fall AEthelmearc AEcademy & War College. The event will be held at the French Creek Valley Campus (420 North Street, Saegertown PA 16433); we will welcome everyone starting at 9 am. Doors will close at 7 pm. The campus is laid all one level and we welcome those that need assistance to attend.
Living in History is the focus of Fall AEcademy. Looking to take your persona to the next level? Then this academy is for YOU! We invite all to teach, share your knowledge and learn! Some examples of classes we are hoping to see: mending, cooking (with an outdoor fire ready and waiting including a bread oven for classes), fiber arts, blacksmithing, pottery, wood working, bee keeping, animal husbandry, food preservation, medicinals, dyeing, ink making, C&I, knot tying, basketry, hound coursing, customs and manners, grooming, games, costuming, leather working and so much more!
This year's AEcademy will be filled with exciting new additions! Fall AEcademy will introduce a track of classes taught by and for our Kingdom's youth artisans. For more information about the youth track, to recommend a youth instructor or if you wish to teach a youth track class, please contact Duchess Ilish O'Donovan
Those of you who wish to teach with the War College have ample outdoor space for fighting, fencing, thrown weapons, youth fighting and fencing. If the weather is inclement, fencing and youth fighting can be held indoors in the gym.
We have something special lined up for the heavy weapons community, too! A Golden Chain day of learning and Tourney will be coordinated by Duke Duncan von Halstern and Syr Stefan Ulfkelsson. Classes taught by members of the Order of Chivalry will help you hone your skills, and a Golden Chain Tourney will let you put those skills to the test.
What else do we have for you? The shire will also host a sideboard lunch filling your pallets with meats, soups and breads of the harvest season, created by our very own Lord Calean O'Rurik and his wonderful staff. Lunch sideboard will be included with the site fee we do ask to please send in your reservations in advance to so the kitchen make sure there is an abundance for everyone.
Riversedge hopes you will join us and share your knowledge, skills and company. Event/site questions should be directed to the Autocrats; Duchess Ilish O' Donovan and Lady Katelyn. Teaching and classroom questions should be directed to Mistress Marsi of Hadley (Marci Waleff, 417 Milledgeville Road, Hadley, PA 16130, 724-866-4149).
The cost for the event is $10 for those 18 and older; attendees 17 and under are our guests and pay no fee (other than the NMS, if applicable).
