Please join us at Mountains Gate for our first annual Arts and Sciences play date. There will be many classes held, a potluck style meal (please remember we are indoors and an ingredients list), an Iron Spoon cooking competition, and even Viking themed A&S competition.. More information to come.
The Feast will be Potluck style. Bring something to share. MUST have an ingredient list. Known people on site with food sensitivities Gluten, Fish and Cinnamon, so NO fish or cinnamon on site.
Iron Spoon competition: Medieval finger food. We want to see what they had for easy pickings. Please make enough to share with everyone at the feast. Your plate will be put aside for out local judges to sample first and pick a winner and then moved to the share table. Please remember NO Cinnamon or Fish on site. Winner will receive the Iron Spoon pendant.
A&S competition: Bring your best viking themed item. Winner will receive the Wood Tablet pendant.
All Judging will be made from our active shire members not participating in the competitions. Known judges allergies are Cinnamon and Spicy Peppers, should you wish to have all judges participate you will want to take this into consideration. Documentation is not needed but we will read it and it will affect the final marks.
