 The Canton of Caldrithig presents Practicum 2012Event Details
If
You've Never Been To An SCA Event Before, Please Note:
Practicum is a medieval event within the Society
for Creative Anachronism (SCA). A reasonable attempt at pre-17th
Century dress is required for the evening activities.
 What did medieval
people do in the winter months by the fire when they
were not off a viking or on a crusade laying siege to their neighbours?
They had to prepare new weapons and fix old armour, creating the latest
fashion or illuminating the latest ransom note. Whiling away
the time
and otherwise entertaining themselves during the long cold winter
months. With this in mind we wish to invite one and all to
come out
and enjoy a day of learning new things and partake in
discussions and
activities that might have been of interest indoors by the hearth (be
it in your long house or in your castle) while the snow fell outside.
There will be a full days programming for children
classes, parents are requested to offer some time helping out, as this
is not designed as a babysitting service.
