The Shire of Carreg Wen would like to invite you to join us in the beautiful hills above Santa Barbara for Coronation and Queen’s Champion in June. This will be a camping event held at Live Oak Camp, the same site at which the King’s Hunt event is held.
Schedule for the Weekend:

Memories
From Lachlan of Cromarty
The event announcement states that the coronation would be outdoors and that all of the Queen's champion tournaments would be held at the site. The weather did not cooperate with this. A constant drizzle required that coronation be held under the ramada and the archery and thrown weapons tournaments weren't held. Before the event, the equestrian championship needed to be canceled as well to safeguard the health of the horses from a virus outbreak. >sigh< Despite all of this, the armored combattants seemed to enjoy crashing about in the rain, and the rapier tournament was successfully completed in a corner of the ramada.
