Dust rises in the distance on all horizons, as the chariots of warriors converge on a field of honour at the confluence of two mighty rivers in the heart of Lyndhaven: it is almost time for the Shire Tourney of Champions! Come join us and see who emerges victorious on the tourney fields for Rattan, Archery and Fencing.

Arts & Sciences: Our gentles are invited to participate in an Arts & Sciences display. Please bring your completed and/or works in progress. Although not a formal competition, there will be a "populace's choice" award.

A modest dayboard will be served at noon and a delectable feast served at 5:30.

Site Location: Lindsay Valley Lodge, CFB Gagetown, Oromocto, NB.

Directions: Due to some construction at CFB Gagetown, an alternate route to the lodge should be used. Here is the easiest route, if one enters the base via the main gate. At the first intersection, turn left onto Champlain. Follow Champlain to its end. Turn right onto Ganong. The road to the lodge will be on your left, at the sign for Camp Argonaut. Those entering the north gate will be unaffected.
