Lochmere

The Barony of Lochmere once more invites archers to join their Barony at a scenic waterfront site in Annapolis, Maryland for a day of archery, an atlatl battle, good food and companionship. As always, the main event will be the challenging walk- through shoot. The path climbs through some rolling hillside but is not particularly steep. An extra effort is being made to incorporate a variety of missile weapons into the shoot. Whether you shoot or not, the Barony encourages you to come for the food, the socializing with old and new friends and the time to work on small A&S projects. Musicians and singers are welcome as well. If you are a newcomer to the SCA, this is a nice, low key, no pressure event to learn about archery and thrown weapons.

FightingARCHERY, including ATLATL. Archery/atlatl targets are set up in the surrounding woods and along the water for an interesting and challenging shoot. There may be time for an atlatl battle. The practice range is available any time there is a marshal present. Siege weapon demo at lunch.
Arts & Sciences:There are no formal A&S activities. Attendees are encouraged to bring small A&S projects to work on and share with others. Be aware that there is limited space for displays. Covered space is even more limited. This is a small site, however, if individuals wish to conduct impromptu A&S classes within this limitation contact the Event Steward and we'll see what we can do.
Feast:There will be a roast pig dinner with all the trimmings by Master Reynard de la Rochefoucauld. Please direct any dietary concerns to the Event Steward.
Merchanting:No merchants except for the fundraiser.
Other:There are only a few chairs at the site so attendees should bring their own. Covered space is also limited, so small dayshades are encouraged. Special: Bake sale fundraiser to benefit the American Cancer Society.
