The calvert jousting tournament is comming up Aug 30th. Its always the last Saturday in Aug. We will be going to practice probably once a week till then at Christ Church in Broomes Island. Not sure dates and times yet. I do know we will be going Thursday evening. Probably like 5ish. If anyone would like to join us let me know. Any one any age can compete. All it takes is a relatively steady horse (ie can trot/canter in a straight line through 3 arches while you hold a lance.) There is even a leadline division. We would be happy to get anyone started.

Is this REAL jousting? Armor? Knocking people off of horses, etc??

So, you have to lance a ring hanging from a string and don't get to knock each other off of horses? Where's the fun in that? :mad:

Mojo, don't worry about warming up for this event, I'm out.
