Yule was a traditional holiday to welcome back the light on the longest night of the year, celebrating with friends and family with much food and merriment. So come and join us for a night of food, games, entertainment, and dancing on December 14th! In the spirit of the holiday this event is a gift to the populace, therefore there will be no site fee, only a fee for those wishing to partake in the feast to recoup the costs of the food.
SCHEDULE:
Event starts at 3:00pm
Feast service starts around 6:00
Site closes at 9:30
EVENT REGISTRATION: None. This event is a gift to the populace.
ACTIVITIES/COMPETITIONS: Such activities during the event will consist of a dessert contest, with two chances to win. The first will be visual/historic presentation, and the second, a populace choice vote for the tastiest. You may submit either a single dessert item for both contests or two different desserts, one for each contest.
Baroness Finna will be teaching period games throughout the day, and his highness, Prince Brocc of Alderden has graciously volunteered to teach period dances later in the evening. There will be door prizes for those who attend, and bardic entertainment during the feast.
