Barony of Myrgan Wood

Weekly Meetings:

• June 10th – Indoor Gaderian

• Arts and Fight Practice – Gaderian

  FIGHT PRACTICE/ARTS & SCIENCES/SOCIALISING

  Wednesdays

  

  Lakewood Civic Centre (Summer/Outdoor)
  1635 McKercher Drive, Saskatoon
  6:30-9:30 pm

  Join the members of our community as we gather weekly to hit each other with weapons, and to work on our projects. Whether you’re new, ancient, working on a masterpiece, or just looking to hang out, we invite you to come share in our fun.

  There are no fees for outdoor practice, though donations are welcome.

  Group gear is available for those wishing to participate in heavy and fencing combat, so don’t let your lack of fight-kit keep you away! Please email bandb@myrganwood.org if you require access to group gear to ensure timely accessibility of it. Your own groin protection, though, is necessary for full-on fighting. If you do not have groin protection, drills and slow-work is still possible.

  Please be aware of the current weather conditions, bring your own container for water, and closed toe shoes! Bugspray is your friend!

  Garb is encouraged, but optional.

  Children welcome, though they must be accompanied by an adult.

  Often, drinks/snacks/hang-out after practice may occur, though such plans are spontaneously formalised and never guaranteed.

  In the event of inclement weather, we will move to our indoor space. Stay tuned to our social media pages and website for announcements regarding changes to location.
