The House of the [[Voyagers]] (the group that brought Body-Looting contests back to mainland Caid & <u>invented</u> Cloved-Lemon Tag) & the Barony of the Angels will once more be celebrating Springtime with the (3rd. Annual!) May Day Tournament & Revel on Saturday Apr 30.

<u>Schedule for the day:</u>

The Contests & events of the day include

*Most Obscene Use of Musical Terminology
*On-site Embroidery
*The Infamous "Body Looting" contest (ask someone who was there last year . . .)

We will also repeat our popular Turkey Legs lunch and "bottomless cup" lemonade.

Evening events include a potluck banquet, madrigal music by the Occasional Consort, Cloved Lemon Tag, dancing, and similar diversions.

Potluck contributions are by mundane last name; bring 4-6 servings/person. If you need cooking facilities, please contact the Autocrats:

*S-Z bring Fruit or Dessert

Argent Oliphaunt Sale !!! Time to clear your closet, and help support our Barony at the same time! Bring <u>anything</u> you want to se;;: the garb you haven't worn in over a year, the feast gear you got before you moved up to pewter, the old sunshade, the mathoms you've been swapping with everyone else in the Barony for the last ten Yuletide gift exchanges. Someone out there <u>does</u> want that fabric that was 50 cents a yard but the wrong blue for you, or the trim that looks Byzantine when your persona's Tudor. We ask that 30% of the price (or more if you wish) be tithed to the Baronial coffers. Look for us at the Sign of the Argent Oliphaunt, or contact Lady [[Alys Meghan Cattewynne]].

Our site is Tournament Park, at Caltech in Pasadena. From the California Bl. entrance, it's behind the Tech athletic fields & Gym; go to the back of the parking lot & look for a little gate. There is also parking at the Wilson Street end of the park. Pavillion space is limited; to be assured a spot, please call the Autocrats & reserve. First consideration will be given to royal & baronial pavillions; otherwise, reservations will be on a 'first come, first served' basis. There is also ample shade available.  

For further information, contact the Autocrats. 

The May Tourney is an official event of the Barony of the Angels, hosted by the House of the Voyagers.
