Beltane marks the beginning of spring heralding the return of warm winds brining fat geese back to our skies. As the birds sing in the branches of the budding tress, so to do the Bards of Montengarde sing, story tell and dance. Baron Beothuk of the Beothuks and Baroness Wilma the Still do invite one and all to witness the challenge of the Bards of Montengarde to take the mantle of Championship from Archos Ellias Sliver, reigning Wild Rose.

Challenges for Archery, Arts & Sciences, Armed Combat, and Rapier Combat will be held throughout the day to entertain all who would care to participate.

Their Excellencies most heartily invite one and all to join them for a wondrous feast in the evening prepared by His Excellency Kirk Einarsson in the likeness of 14 century German Fare.
