Encampment: Clan mac Pharlain

Greetings and Fiálte!

After long discussions regarding establishment of a Clan presense at events, we have are registered with the Land Office for Pennsic War XXXIII with the above name. Pre-Register as soon as possible and record your medallion numbers in the Group Pre-Registration Database. With all parties in agreement, some ground rules have been established.

We all agree in the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) methodology of raising a War Encampment, thus any decadence will be kept to a discrete minimum. Afterall, we are on vacation, and there's other work and responsibilities outside the encampment. We have much of what we feel a basic War Camp should look like, and will be working over the coming months to procure the remaining for a dry-run at War of the Roses. This will be followed by Pre-Pennsic warmup at EK North Region War Camp.

As with all new encampments and Land Agents, choice of land is a Crap Shoot at best. We are at the mercy of the Land Office; however, we feel that we can get a slice of one of the blocks we seek without being sent to the Serengheti's North 40. Those choices are E08, E12, E09 & E13 - in that order.
