Hail and well met!

I love teaching this course and it has become a perennial favorite at Pennsic. People take it for a variety of reasons — some wish to know what their persona would have known, some are more survival/preparedness-minded, and some simply wish to be able to find their way back to their encampment from parties at War. The handout covers the highlights of the class.

This course has been previously taught at:

• Festival of the Flowers — May 2016, Bjornsborg, Ansteorra
• Pennsic 45 — July/August 2016
• War of the Rams — November 2016, Ansteorra
• Gulf Wars — March 2017, Glenn Abhann
• Pennsic 46 — July/August 2017
• War of the Rams — November 2017, Ansteorra
• Gulf Wars — March 2018, Glenn Abhann
• Pennsic 47 — July/August 2018
• War of the Rams — November 2018, Ansteorra
• Gulf Wars — March 2019, Glenn Abhann

I was in a bad car wreck a week after Gulf 2019, so I did not attend Pennsic that summer.

• War of the Rams — November 2019, Ansteorra

Then Covid kicked off, closing down Gulf as I was driving there. Literally had to turn around at the Texas border. Then I got married and moved to France, so no longer presented the class at Gulf or Rams/BAM. 

• Pennsic 49 — July/August 2022
• Pennsic 50 — July/August 2023

The Summer Olympics were in Paris the same two weeks as Pennsic 2024, so I stayed in France and attended some phenomenal events. 

Pennsic 2025 was just a couple of weeks after our move back to the US, so we were unable to attend (alas).

• Gulf Wars — March 2026, Glenn Abhann

UPCOMING:

• Pennsic 53 — July/August 2026
