The Basics 

Greetings to all you Pirates, Cut Throats, Back Stabbers, Lurkers in the Dark, and Ne'er-Do-Wells.

Can it be that this will be the Twentieth Bare Blade Tavern Brawl? Yes, this will be the twentieth edition of the longest continuous running fencing event in the East Kingdom.  This year we have a brand new site and lots of fun and fiendishness in store.  We will be taking a trip down memory lane as we will be re-creating some of the games and surprises of the past twenty Bare Blades.  There will also be a lavish day board provided and a gaming hall for the non fencers.  After the day festivities there will be a grand feast followed by dancing.  This will surely be an event that you will not want to miss.  So bring your foils, epées, daggers, and rubber band guns and plan on a bit of treachery.

Fencing notes from the Fencing Marshal: This is a Light Rapier (foil/epee) default. RBGs will be allowed for specific scenarios. We may not be able to accommodate fencing with heavy rapiers due to the all-melee format of this game.  

Additional Site Notes: There will be a soccer game on the outside lawns of the event site which will wrap up by 1 pm. Parking is available across the street at the white church's parking lot if the lot is full. 

Yes, you may drop off your gear before parking.
