Success at Great Western War

October 17, 2011 – We had a very successful week at Great Western War in Taft CA. William and Fox won the title of Queen’s Champion for Her Majesty Mora III. Now Fox has a beautiful new Caidan blue halter marked with the Queen’s name and the title of Queen’s Champion.

Scianna and Bansidhe came home with the Championship for the Barony of Angels (Los Angeles CA). For the next year, they will ride for the honor of the Baron and Baroness of Angels, and Bansidhe will be caparisoned in their beautiful crimson and gold champion’s blanket.

William, Fox, Scianna, and Bansidhe also helped demonstrate mounted combat on the Main Battlefield on Friday morning. William led Her Majesty’s Riders against the Chivalry in a mounted combat competition on Sunday morning. The honor of the Queen was upheld as Her riders won the best three out of five matches. Huzzah!

Fox’s Rest News

When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air; the earth sings when he touches it;the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes. 

~William Shakespeare, Henry V
