Boniface Hosts Collegium

Barony of Winter's Gate, Oertha--The College of St Boniface hosted a Collegium in the Far North for those interested in learning more about different arts and sciences in the Society for Creative Anachronism. The classes ranged from Leather Turn Shoes to Calligraphy, from Mittens to Marshalling, and many things in between.

The event was well attended by those from the Barony of Winter's Gate in addition to some visitors from the Barony of Selviergard. And while the weather outside was cold (it was called it a tropical heat wave by those who live in the area) the classrooms were warmed by the friendship of those in attendance and quite comfortable.

With so many interesting classes, as with all Collegiums, difficult decisions had to be made as to what class to attend while asking for notes from those classes missed. There were simply too many classes to choose from which shows the depth and breadth of talented people in the Principality of Oertha.

The Autocrat for the event, as well as all the instructors, should be commended on such a wonderful Collegium with a diverse selection of things to learn about. Many left the event with new ideas for old projects and new projects planned for the winter months ahead…exactly the way a Collegium should be.
