Second Annual Lirisa Picnic

(The Three Provinces: 341 Dolefaren 353)

History and Background

Lirisa the Archer is felt by many rangers to be a patron saint of their profession. Fall is the time when animals coats begin to grow full and rich. In keeping with Her affinity for skinning, rangers will often gather on the 24th day of the Month of Moliko to relate the news that has occured since they last met and to engage each other in contests of the bow and rangerly skill. While rangers of both sexes participate equally in this day, the festivities of this day are primarily sponsored by the females of the profession.

Fletching classes
One room will be set aside for fletching and will be staffed by experienced archers throughout the picnic to provide assistance, instruction and good conversation. Will be held throughout the afternoon in the Alder Thicket. I’m looking for a few more volunteers to help with this.
