CANTON OF ELVEGAST
FIGHTER PRACTICE
At
Lake
Crabtree County Park
1400 Aviation Parkway,
Morrisville, NC 27560-9145
(See directions below.) |
The
Canton of Elvegast
holds its Armoured and Rapier practices on Sunday afternoons
beginning at 1:00 PM. Please be armoured and ready to go as soon
after 1 PM as possible.
If a Baronial practice, a local SCA event or a major holiday is
scheduled on a Sunday, our practice IS canceled. (See the
Baronial Calendar
for more info.) Everyone should make an attempt to get to
baronial practice if at all possible.
Like the armies of the middle ages, we believe there is a season for
war. So if it is raining/sleeting/snowing, or the temperature is
below 40º F at 11AM on the day of practice, that practice is
cancelled. If you are not sure about the forecast for Raleigh,
please refer to
http://www.wraltv.com/weather.If
you would like to armour up and fight, after some instruction, bring
elbow & kneepads as well as an athletic protector (aka a "cup"). You
will also need closed toe shoes, and may wish to use shoes that
provide ankle support.
For further information contact the Marshal, Master Callixtus Gill (Calli) at
callixtus.gill@gmail.com
or (919) 926-9908 (cell). |
DIRECTIONS
From I-40 take Exit 285 for Aviation Parkway.
If coming from the West, turn Right onto Aviation Parkway.
If coming from the East, turn Left onto Aviation Parkway.
Travel 0.2 mile from the exit to the first traffic light and
turn Left into the park.
Drive into the park and turn into the first parking lot on the Right,
near a large grassy field within view of the lake. |
| Should you wish to visit the park bathroom, be prepared
for a long journey. It's within
sight of the practice, but it's a bit of a walk to get there. Bring a
sunshade if you can (nothing that requires ropes or stakes or has walls is
allowed), and definitely a chair, bench or blanket, and something to munch
on. |
