February 17, 2015. It is Shrove Tuesday, Random Act of Kindness Day, A Snow Day off work for me, Lulu is running a sale. Positive vibes abound so in keeping with that spirit I think we will let the discount price of $200.00 for the event run for another week. That will give some pocketbooks strained by Valentines Day a chance to replenish themselves. I encourage people who are determined to come to register or at least make a firm commitment by contacting me directly (use the Contact link above) to save you a spot.
Tentative detailed event schedule and Friday night "meet and greet" are done. I am working on a little last minute "show and tell" experience inspired by the behind the scenes trip to Glasgow at last years International Smallsword Symposium.
If you want to support the event and its goal of better and more inclusive smallsword education and practice here in the US but cannot attend please consider picking up a copy of St. Martin an 1804 Austrian Smallsword Manual the proceeds of which go toward event expenses. Today only 2/17/2015 Lulu is running a 28% off sale that brings the $25.00 price down to $18.00 plus shipping. Scroll down the Blog archives for a full description of St. Martin.
