Duchy Leuwenberg's List of Events

These are some of the events and happenings that the members of Duchy Leuwenberg attend or are planning.

Don't forget to check out the Special Events section at the bottom.

Estrella War (Presidents day weekend) - This one goes first as it is the main event in our Kingdom. We usually camp with the Knights of St. Michael, so look for us there when you are at the war.

Southern Crusades (Mid November) - This is a new war to take the place of Baron's War. It was held in the Barony of Mons Tonitrus, but has been moved to Winkleman Flats.

Baronial Fighter Practice - Held Sunday afternoons at Himmel park and Tuesday nights at Reid park in Tucson. Tuesday night practice is great during the summer but fun all year long. Follow the link to Tir Ysgithr's web page for more information.

College of St. Felix Fighter Practice - (Thursday nights at 7) - Once more back at the College after a stint at Himmel park. A great practice especially during the summer.

Michaelmass Celebration and Tourney - This small event is held every year on the Feast of St. Michael. It is accompanied by a Tourney to determine who will be the Defender of St. Michael for the next year. It is an unbelted tourney, with the winner being the most Chivalrous and Courteous of all on or off the field. The winner of the Tourney does not necessarily become the Defender.

Special Events

Crystal Flute Bardic Competition - This event is held every year at Estrella War within our encampment. It is comprised of anyone who holds interest in the bardic arts and also enjoys performing. The winner receives a beautiful hand-crafted Crystal Flute. That's right, a real Crystal Flute. We have also expanded the competition to include anyone interested in Filk music as well, the Chrystal Fruit is it's name. For more information, Click here.

Symposium of the Sinister Swords(wo)man - This event is geared for those of us closest to perfection... the Left-Handers. The idea came to me one night while I was helping a new left-handed fighter get started. We as left handed fighters do not get to fight each other as much as we would like as there are just not enough of us out there. That is the main purpose of the Symposium. Left-Handed fighters are asked to come together and share their knowledge and learn from each other. We will also be able to fight more lefties than ever before. I am in the process of getting a Tournament scheduled at Estrella War. Once I have a concrete time and place setup, I will add the information to this page. For now though, the Symposium will take place Tuesday nights at Tir Ysgithr fighter practice as often as I can get more than one lefty to come out.
