Event Info

Greetings unto those to whom these words may come. The Canton of Nordholt invites one and all to join us MAy 9-11 for Stinky War IX where the Peasants are Revolting. The verdant fields of Cheadle Lake Park will once again host the madness and mayhem.

This year the morning warm up will focus on spear work, working as a unit, tactics and other arts of war. Subjucts discussed and practiced at the latest War Moot held at Crown Council will be touched upon as well. The afternoon will be devoted to fighting. The Serf's Up scenarios will allow all weapon styles excluding swords of any size and shields. The Peasants Are Revolting scenarios will feature a limitation on weapon styles depending on the side you represent. The noblility will be allowed the use of knightly weapons but no spears while the peasantry will be given the use of spears but not swords and possibly shields if the peasants are brave enough. To finish the day, grab what you will and fight for honor and glory.

Whilst war rages on, the gentler arts will be pursued in a pavilion devoted to teaching and sharing with all those who are interested throughout the afternoon. Those who are interested in sharing a skill or finding out what is being offered are encouraged to contact Lady Isabeau de Loutre Argent at 541-981-1147. And let us not forget Sunday morning, when the newest champion of Nordholt will be selected in grueling one-on-one combat. For more information please contact our current champion, Lord Gunnar Dagsson draveling@comcast.net.

Site fee is $10 for adults, $5 for 10-17 and 9 and under free. We will have a family cap of $30 in place.
