[Hartwood] HARTWOOD TUTR APRIL 12 & 13 IN NANAIMO

[Valorie Lennox]

Yearning for Learning? Mark April 12 and 13 on your calendar for Hartwood's
annual TUTR session which will be held in South Hartwood (the mundane city
of Nanaimo)  central to the island and within easy reach of two ferries from
the lower mainland.

 

Site fee will be $20 for both days, including the evening revel, but not
including individual class enrolment. Youth aged 12 to 18 will be charged
$10; children under the age of 12 will be free (but must be supervised by an
adult). Revel only fee is $10.

 

The final class schedule and registration details will be posted shortly but
will include a martial arts stream and cooking classes, along with craft
classes, historical skills and SCA skills. A list of confirmed classes is
posted below. 

Location will be the OAPO Branch #4 Hall at 2465 Labieux Road, which is
three blocks from the main island highway and within walking distance of
several restaurants. Parking space is available behind the building. 

 

Classes will start at 9 a.m. Saturday with a break for lunch and wrap up in
the evening with a quasi-potluck feast and revel. Classes will resume Sunday
at 12:30 and continue until 3:30-4 p.m.

 

The evening revel will include shire-provided main dishes, both meat and
vegetarian,  with participants asked to provide side dishes and dessert. A
list with suggested potluck items will be posted with the class schedule.
Please label all contributions with contents.

 

CONTESTS
There will be two related contests at the revel. 

The first will be for an example of a largesse item - no documentation
required but medieval/renaissance in appearance. Attendees will be asked to
vote for the item they would most like to receive, with the winner receiving
the most votes.


The second will be for a description of how to create a largesse item with
short accompanying documentation. No item is required: just directions on
how it would be made including required materials, equipment, costs and time
required per item. Judging will be on clarity of directions, cost and time
effectiveness, and historical appropriateness.

 

No camping space is available but limited billeting space can be provided -
please reserve in advance by contacting Elspeth (
