To expand a little bit more on this event (again partly quote by sir feral)

The theme of this event will be a revival of the Wetlands. This will start at the gate as people are given what used to be a fine tradition in our kingdom: Belt favors to hold beads that represent the awards they've been given. There will be beads available for them to build their own at gate.

Militia Battles - Betcha didn't know that militia battles were started in the
Wetlands. We'll have several battles that feature this style of play.

1st Level battle - Play a class you've never played before. Sashes will be provided for those ill-equiped for their new lot in life.

Build a Newbie - The first ever Build a Newbie was done right here in the Wetlands. We'll do so again. You get a box and a newbie. . Your job is to
have them outfitted with garb, weapons, and have them able to pass a simple reeves test. They also will need to play in a full class game. This will begin on Friday and end Saturday afternoon.

Ship to Ship full class battle -
This classic of nautical know how will take center stage on Saturday
afternoon.

Battle for The Shire of Fnord's Crossing - Old Timers will know about Fnord's Crossing. The young probably haven't. So, to teach some history, we'll have a Young vs. Old battle in honor of one of our founding fathers.

Trails! We all remember the trails of the old Granite Spyre park, and then there are the fantastic trails at the Wall. This site has trails for use. So, we'll have an old school trail battle game.


Wetlands Awareness Test Classic! - Think you can name every monarch?
Think you have your geography in hand to name every land the Wetlands
has had? Do you know who the only two monarchs to ever serve two terms in a row is? Or how about the one true disappearing regent? For those who have been around, come test your knowledge. For those who are newer, come learn something about your kingdom.

A New Tradition: Friday Night Endreign BBQ presented to the populace by the knights of the Wetlands.

Bardic - There is a bardic ring set up in the campsite. It's a bit small and cozy, but the best bardics are.

Feast will serve promptly at 6:30 pm. Court to be held directly following.

The incoming officers:

Monarch: Juju Hex Mojo
Regent: Mousey Cantankerous
Champion: Sir Zachry Ironwolf
Guildmaster of Reeves: Sir Daxon Goldmoon
