Angels and Altavia Yule 2013

“Silver and gold... Silver and gold...Everyone wishes for silver and gold...”

Come join the Baronies of Angels and Altavia as we celebrate the Holidays together! It will be an evening 'Per pale Argent and Or,” that is to say -- an evening of Silver and Gold, side by side. There will be much to do, much to eat, and much fun to be had, so please come feast and frolic with us! Please bring your banners and shields to display and add pageantry to the hall.

The theme for the evening, and all contests and competitions, is “Silver and Gold." Entries matching the theme are preferred (but not required). So, here are the night’s events:

There will be a revel after the feast with period dancing and games. In addition, the Angels' Cultural Endowment Foundation will present an encore performance of Sock Puppet Theater – The Director’s Cut of Henry V (with added special features.) If you missed this treat at GWW, here's another chance to enjoy the fun!

We will be having our annual Toys for Tots drive, so please bring a new, unwrapped toy for donation.

Contests include

• Table-Decorating: Tables are round and seat 8.
• Best Costume
• Altavia Chess Champion
• Angels Games Champion
• Culinary contests sponsored by Baron Peter Cadarn: Best Side Dish, Best Main Dish, Best Dessert and People's Choice. (All dishes will be entered into the contest.)

Calling all bards!

This year, the Bard of Angels and Bard of Altavia competitions will be held concurrently, so that all entrants will be eligible for either position.
