Baronial open house and project day.

The Baronial open house and project day is where members of The Barony meet at the B&B's house to work on current baronial projects. It is an opportunity to meet members of the populace and to get to grips with longer projects.

The project day is in Sunbury at the B&B's house, a private residence. Call for directions.
Please call them (beforehand or on the day) to make sure they are home.

Come and sing for fun!

*********************************************************

4th Sunday of the month
1:30pm-5:00pm
John Gardiner Reserve, Hawthorn

Combat is, of course, a major focus of activity in the SCA.

Tournaments are all well and good - a stylised spectator sport, and a lot of fun besides!

However, to really get your blood pumping, there's nothing like a good old-fashioned war!

War is different from a tournament - and not just because you've got arrows flying everywhere. It's not enough to be a good fighter, able to take down any other fighter you meet. Tactics, movement, integration with your teammates - this is what is required to be a force to be reckoned with on the warfield.

There are two types of dancing currently being taught in the Barony, European dance and belly dance.

Bring your dancing shoes and enthusiasm. Musicians welcome.

All dancing will be taught. No partner needed.

Where
Church Hall, Michael & McKean Street, North Fitzroy

When
The first Thursday of the month from 7:30pm to 10:00pm

Cost
$5 for non-members, $3 for members (including college members)
