DESCRIPTION

Incipient Canton of Hauksgarðr 
Sponsored by the Barony of 3 Mountains 
Hood River & Wasco Counties, Oregon

Come join the Incipient Canton of Hauksgarðr as we celebrate the approaching end of winter with the Feast of Saint Brigid. In addition to an all ages potluck feast and bardic jam session, we shall be hosting two contests.

The winter has been long, and the larders are emptying at an alarming rate! Bring a potluck dish that contains elements of what might be left in the larder after a long winter, or what you might "find" out in the forests this time of year. Entries will be judged on a basis of most period and crowd favorite. 

In addition to the cooking contest, we'll be hosting a brew contest. Bring samples of your best brew out to be judged. Type doesn't matter, be it mead, beer, cordial or wine. And if your brew didn't turn out so well... maybe your flavors are a little off, maybe your mix is a little too sweet (or sour...) Bring it on out anyway; in addition to the contest for the best of the best, we'll also be looking for the best attempt and most period.

For both contests please list ingredients. If you are entering for most period category, please provide as much documentation as you can. Non-period dishes are also welcome as potluck contributions.

If you are a musician, please bring your instruments (or your voice!) and join in the "bardic jam session". There's room for all around our fire!

Potluck contributions by mundane last name, enough for your family +10 servings: M-R: Main dish, S-Z: Side Dish, A-L: Desserts. Please bring your own beverage, feast gear, and table setting. Site is discretely wet. To be kind to those with allergies, please label your potluck contributions.
