Meaning of the Name
As told by Lynnette de Sandoval del Valle de los Unicornios:
In the Dragonriders of Pern books by Anne McCaffrey, the Harper's Guild ate at tables based on their rank.
When a Harper gained a new rank, they walked the boards to the new table.
When the Guild decided to have a yearly dining event that included rank advancement, I suggested (well, pushed for actually) calling it Walking the Boards.
My vision was to have rank advancements announced at dinner, with those advancing "walking the boards" up to the head table to get a certificate of their new rank.
Brew Days
In 2009 the Guild has started a series of somewhat monthly Brew Days hosted by Brewmaster Timotheus and Journeyman Donal O`Brien. The Brew Days will be hands on brewing activities. Each Brew Day will have a scheduled theme with one or more brewing projects running throughout the day.
