Description:
Pennsic looms large, but a war for Neppie is on the horizon! Neppie, beloved mascot of the Barony of Marinus's Archery Company, was a guest of honor at Tir-y-Don's Baronial Birthday in May and has not returned home. Tir-y-Don insists that Neppie requested their indefinite stay, but Marinus is not so sure…

Bring a friend, pick a side, and join us in the final battle for custody on August 23. This event will be newcomer-friendly -- whether you're new to archery, new to the SCA, or just looking for a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon, all are welcome!
