Just "looping" everyone in on an amazing archery shoot at Sharp Pointy Things. In the spirit of sharp pointy things, there will be sewing challenges, cooking challenges, gaudy (paper) rapier fighters hiding in the forest, and *gasp* archery challenges. Also, rumor has it that Her Excellency's sheep have gone wandering...again.
Warriors, bearing the White Hand, needs to be banished from the lands of Nordskogen. The beacon has been lit! Who will answer?!
Target numbers 1-15 will be part of the shoot with several prizes. Smaller groups will be sent out with a marshal to reduce congestion at targets. Extra marshals needed.
Targets 29-34 (between 15 and 16) will be part of another shoot put on by Bazyli...with separate prizes!
A portion of the loop includes both unpaved trails (both grass and hardpacked dirt) and elevated shooting platforms (stairs). We have alternate ground level shooting locations at each platform. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Fiber Arts
It’s hard to beat the fiber arts for sheer variety of Sharp Pointy Things! A&S at the event can accommodate fiber preparation (cleaning, combing, carding), dyeing, spinning, weaving, knitting, braiding, naalbinding, sewing, and much more. We will have shady and sunny spaces, tables, and access to water and electricity. What do you want to try? Messy processes welcome! Bring a project or experiment with something new!
We are allowed to bring propane flame for projects, depending on fire restrictions that weekend. Additional shade flies are welcome, but bring sandbags/weights: NO STAKES ALLOWED per the site
Are other arts and sciences welcome? Yes! Bring your projects and hang out with other craftspeople!
