Horses at events
By Andrew FitzMichael, Knight of the Briar Hedge.
When you think of the middle ages, you think of horses. Horses have a way of turning even the most mundane events into something special for the public and participants. Bringing horses to events is a big deal though, and much goes into their participating that is both obvious and sometimes less so. Ever wonder why it is so hard to get horses to come to events? So what is involved in having horses at events? If you want to run an event, what does it take to have horses come? Or better yet, what does it take to for you to bring your own horse to events? The gulf between the non-equestrian and equestrian groups has caused a number of problems over the years. A lack of understanding about what goes into it all is the root of the problem. Having horses at an event is not easy. This essay is intended to help the would-be medieval equestrian, and the folks who want to have horses at events understand what goes into it all. Hopefully it will help make having more events with horses possible in the future. Posted on 29 Dec 2008 by admin
Fall War Summary
Daytime temperatures in the sixties and nights that felt more like late spring made for a great backdrop to Fall War this year. Once again at Blackbird forest, the camping area was much improved over that of Death and Taxes war, with far less hacking away of the undergrowth needed to setup camp. Posted on 09 Nov 2008 by admin

Fall Council Meeting This Weekend!
Greetings, all!
Don't forget - the Fall Council Meeting is this Saturday at the Bear, Delaware Library - as listed in the Calendar of Events. Start time is 1:00, and we will be done before (hopefully long before!) 4:45. Included on the Fall Council agenda is always a call for new proposals concerning any of the martial rules. Council Meetings are always open to current members of Markland, and each Official Group (along with the collective body of independent membership) has 2 votes to cast. Quorem (half plus one) in attendance is required to validate all voting at Council Meetings...so don't let us down! Come help fix what may irk you...or forfeit whining rights until the next installment of Markland Corporate! -MB Posted on 22 Oct 2008 by admin
