Baronial Heavy Weapons Practice

Starting Jan. 22nd, 2009:
Caerthe fighter practice is held at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds on Thursday evenings: 15200 W. 6th Ave. Golden, Co. 80401-5018. This site will provide a wonderful park, with a warm and dry site for the long winter months. Practices will continue on Thursday at 6:00 PM to 9:30 PM.

The site is not free; we pay $30.00 per practice. We will be passing around a brass bowl at every practice to help defray the barony's expense for the site. We have loaner gear available for those interested; you should provide your own groin protection. Knee and elbow pads are a plus.

Directions:

From the South:
1. Make your best route to I-70 and 6th Ave.
2. Go east on 6th Ave. approximately .5 miles.
3. Go south on Indian St.
4. Continue south on Indiana for about 1.5 miles (continue south through the traffic light, do not turn at the light). The park entrance will be on your right. Go west and follow the road around the bend and the Jefferson County Fairgrounds will be on your left. Look for SCA signs at entrances.
