I responded directly to Rachael Hoffenblum, and went over to the
daycamp for about 2 hours. Took almost all my Western European garb,
from Viking through Elizabethan; arrived dressed in sideless
surcoat, showed the rest of the things. Passed around the pieces of
the Elizabethan, which of course made them want me to put it on. So
I used the sideless surcoat outfit as the shift, omitted the corset
(for lack of time), and popped everything else on... Also had a
drop spindle and my lace pillow with me.<br>
<br>
There is a nine-men's morris board on line that I printed, together
with the rules, and I made a grid of 48x48 Excel spreadsheet cells.
Printed on two colors of paper, gave each girl a strip of each color
and let them tear them apart for the tokens (a tiny plastic bag to
take both colors home means they could play at home, too). Everybody
learned, some even got as far as flying!<br>
<br>
Didn't get to the music I had brought on the iPad, but they are in a
former car dealership and the acoustics are absolutely awful, so not
too much loss.<br>
<br>
Thought it went over well for just me, and something I put together
in just a couple of days.<br>

<div>A friend with whom I once worked is
now working for Girl Scouts Heart of
Michigan. She has a camp (in Ypsilanti)
that is having a medieval-themed daycamp
next week and wondered if a group of
people could come out for a demo
(talking, teaching, or providing a craft
opportunity). She requests Tue, Wed, or
Thu, but timing is flexible (it's a
day-camp, so like school-day hours).
The camp is being held at the Ypsi
Regional Center (at 444 James L Hart
Pkwy). I let her know that this is
extremely short notice, but I would ask
around anyway. This doesn't have to be
a very big demo, from the sound of it;
just a few people should be fine.</div>
