Heraldry
  Simcha-Chaya has a great class on this
 
Arts & Sciences display
   This is a great place to display your crafts and weaponry. This area is for both groups and needs to be guarded at all times.  We will  
   coordinate with Talonval.
    
Information table
   Information from Cynnabar and Talonval will be available 
 
Food
 Need someone to talk about food in the Middle Ages. 
 
Musicians
  It would help add atmosphere to have musicians. Strolling, performing in one place, both?
 
People in garb
 
Blacksmith- Alex is committed to doing this.
 
Games
 
Garb Workshop
  The librarian said there are about 30 people in the community who are asking for garb.  We suggested a T-tunic workshop that could be held
  at the library.  They are excited about this idea.
  Both SCA groups together could not outfit that many people.  I am concerned about loaning out that much garb to community participants.
  We would need several people to lead the workshop. 
 
  If a second workshop is needed, perhaps the library staff could provide instruction.  They would like to participate too.
 
 
Restrooms- 
  Inside the library
 
Changing rooms
  There will be separate men/women's changing rooms in the library
 
Parking
 Parking is free in the library lot. They are checking on adding parking at other sites nearby for the community.
 
Day Camps
 Ample room for day camps
 
Vendors
The library says there will be no outside vendors at this event
 
Advertising
-The library plans to issue a press release.  They are hoping for coverage by the local paper called the Manchester Enterpise.
-They will be placing flyers throughout the town.
 
We are asking the library to provide:
-Tables
-chairs
-large tent
  This could include a place for many workshops, performances.  It's also good to have in case of rain.
