Resources for Medieval Era Enthusiasts

Classes, Classes, Classes

We had a wonderful response to our chainmail classes . . . James handled two of them on his own in Los Lunas . . . he seemed to have held his own – no surprise there!
I held our first pennywhistle class. Although attendance was a little sparse (ok, there two), every one had fun and we received some very nice comments. The Los Lunas group has given an indication that they will have 11 at least for our class there on June 2. I will schedule another class if there is interest.
Nine Men Morris is on the schedule . . . two classes in Albuquerque and two in Los Lunas. Again, we will schedule more if there is interest. There was an expressed interest in some chess playing . . . both James and I are avid players, so we are definitely up for that!

Working on some “wasters” so that we can get a little sword play going during the summer – I will keep you posted on how those are coming.
Sure could use a little financial help for the archery program . . . that’s more expense then we have resources for at the moment.
We want to revisit the inkle loom classes also . . . that was fun, but the folks in Los Lunas didn’t get the chance to participate yet.
I can think of a dozen other activities that I’d like us to get going if we can find a semi-permanent facility – almost need one in Albuquerque and one in Los Lunas . . . not sure how we will handle that yet.
