The Barony of Calafia and Drafn War Band invites one and all to join us at our annual Leif Ericsson Tourney on Saturday, October 3 2009. Escape the heat at UCSD's shady Stonehenge Park and enjoy a day of fighting, fun and frolic inspired by the Northmen.

The theme of the day will be anything and everything Scandinavian or Icelandic. Dress in your best Norse garb and compete in our contest for the best documented Norse garb. The standard fighting forms of heavies, rapier and unarmored will all be fought. There will also be youth combat and children’s games. A Kubb contest where the winning team get a Kubb set of their very own and some surprise events from the fevered mind of Gyrth the crafty. Of course, there will be a Norse Lore competition. Brush up on your rune reading. We would like for all members who are working on a project to bring it, show it off. Exhibit your arts. If you have an A Frame or some other object that fits into the theme and would like to bring it please contact the autocrat.

Prizes will be awarded to the days contestants.
