Highlights

From the Crown Prints

Come enjoy the day of spooks and ghouls as the Canton of Summergate celebrates Halloween with music, mirth, and sweet treats. The event will be held on Saturday, October 31, 2009, at Buddy Todd Park in Oceanside. There will be two armored lists, one for long sword and one for great sword. The winner of each list will do combat against the other for overall winner of the day. There will be a rapier list that will be single sword only. There will be youth combat and activities. Feel free to bring sealed treats to share with the kids for Trick or Treating.

Armored Combat Rules of the day

Each bout will be with a single two-handed sword, where long swords will be from 44" to 60" and great swords between 60" to 90". No shorter secondary weapons will be allowed. Shields and bucklers will not be allowed. Pole weapons, such as glaives, pole axes and spears will not be allowed. All weapons must be proportional to a European long sword or great sword with the hilt approximately 1/3 the length of the overall weapon. All weapons will be inspected prior to use. Some loaner weapons will be available for use.

Silent Auction

There will be a silent auction for items and "goodie" baskets. The baskets will be filled with all kinds of fabulous stuff you can't live without. So, come prepared with a few extra dollars for the auction.

Lunch will be available for a nominal fee. Fees $5.00 for SCA adult members (Don\'t forget your member card). There will a $3.00 surcharge for nonmembers.
