Description of Event
Come to the Shire of the Isles for a day of less-than-clean fun! Filthy Dirty Collegium features classes that are too messy, too long, or too, er, unscrupulous for a normal collegium. Classes in the past have featured everything from blacksmithing to making period undergarments, and the day will conclude with a delicious feast and bardic circle. Classes will eventually be listed at http://www.mrows.org/filthydirty/, but first we need teachers! If you are interested in teaching, please contact our autocrats, Annabelle (redruby930@yahoo.com) or Menault (menault@live.com). All classes are welcome this is a great place to try out a new class on a small and friendly crowd before teaching it at Collegium Caidis. So bring yourself, your soap, and an appetite for adventure to our fair but dirty shire!

Description of Event
The Vikings were traders who visited many parts of the known world in search of markets and other excitement. On January 30, 2009, some other excitement will be offered in the best Viking manner by the Canton of Poll na Gainmhe. Expect heavy fighting, a three man melee, rapier, unarmored, a sit down luncheon feast prepared by Baron David of Caithness, youth combat, youth activities, the opportunity to sit and relax under tall trees, and the yearly croquet tournament. Merchants are welcome. There is no site fee. Alas, one of the more well known forms of Viking entertainment is not offered, as this is a dry site. Four footed Vikings are welcome. There is limited seating for the feast, and reservations are recommended. Bring your feast gear!
Fees
The feast will demonstrate that the Vikings ate well when visiting when on trading trips to the northern part of the Frankish Kingdom (Germany). The feast is $10 for anyone over the age of 12. For those under 12, the cost is $5. Littles aged 5 and under are guests of the Canton.
Make checks out to SCA, Inc/Canton of Poll na Gainmhe. Feast reservations, merchant reservations, answers to unforeseen questions contact the event steward.
