If you find yourself open on May 11th - 13th and would like to get in more fighting this could easly turn into a melee practice if enough people show. See flier below:
Venture to the top of the Chesapeake Bay and join the Barony of Bright Hills for
a Lovely Event, Lots of Fighting, and a Demo…
Steppingstone Medieval Days and Melee Practice

Steppingstone Museum is a nonprofit educational facility in Harford County and
they are hosting their Medieval Days event on May 12th and 13th.
We are running a demo for this event to add to the educational history component
and share our talents and information about the Middle Ages with the public.
This year we have added a melee practice for those of you who enjoyed the war
muster we hosted at the church but asked for camping, we can offer more space,
camping, and more fighting on Sunday!
We will also be putting on a medieval fashion show for the mother's day tea that
is a museum fundraiser on Sunday, let the autocrat know if you have some
fabulous historic clothing to share…
Fighting and Armoring- Heavy and Rapier
SCA Equestrian activities
Target Archery and Siege Weapons
Medieval and Renaissance Dance
Arts and Sciences Displays and Demonstrations
Bardic Arts- Performer's Revel
Children's Crafts and Games
You can set up Friday night or Saturday morning and camp over both nights at
Steppingstone with a period encampment or modern tents (in a separate area).
Please join us for a quiet camping evening Friday or come on Saturday morning.
This is a beautiful site and they are trying to preserve many of the traditional
handicrafts that derived directly from those that we practice in the SCA.
We are set up as an official event to accommodate authorizations and fighting
again this year, we will also be selecting the Bright Hills Baronial Equestrian
Champion on Saturday. Please note that to participate in Equestrian you must
contact Lady Nem, our equestrian marshal and current baronial champion at least
a week before the event.
Arts and Sciences Demonstrations and Displays are most welcome- the public loves
seeing what we do and we all like to share our great work on ongoing projects
and learn something new!

night. Demo for the public runs Noon-5pm Saturday and Sunday.
Demonstrators (SCA) are free, ($5 admission will be charged to the public
during the demo hours so please arrive early to be set up before 11am either
day). This is also a great demo to invite people who want to see what we do.
Mundane Food Vendors will be present during the museum's event hours and we will
host lunch for a donation, a bake sale, and a potluck feast on Saturday evening
followed by Bardic around the fire.
Steppingstone is in the Susquehanna State Park so all Maryland State Parks rules
are in effect for camping overnight. Pets are welcome if cleaned up after,
discreetly wet during non-event hours, smoking in parking area only.

on the side.
