Directions

One and all are invited to attend the Barony of Settmour Swamp's 30th annual Celebration of the Thawing of the Mud. As always, Mudthaw will feature a wide variety of activities: tournaments in Armored Combat (The traditional Mudthaw Rattan Double Elimination Tournament ), Rapier, Youth Combat, and Thrown Weapons. We'll also host an array of Fine Merchants. There will be a grand Arts and Sciences competition, with the ever important sub-categories of Brewing and Baking. After court, we invite all to dine on the delicious German feast being prepared by Lady Cassandra Matis.

NOTE: All combatants must troll in before they can sign up for any lists. There will be an express check-in available on the field for combatants who pre-register. Reserve ahead and avoid the morning lines at troll.

For the Arts and Sciences competition, in addition to the normal judging, there will be a Populace Choice, a Baron and Baroness of Settmour Swamp's choice, and an Organizer's choice. The Brewing and Baking competitions will held concurrently with the rest of the Arts and Sciences,and will be eligible for the "choice" awards. Entries will be accepted in the following categories for the baking competition: period recipe, bread with spread, dessert bread, and Anything Goes. Please include a full ingredient list for all entries. Entries in the period recipe category must include documentation.

Our Fair and Gracious Baroness of Settmour Swamp Rhiannon de Carreg Cennen will be holding her Third annual subtlety contest. All entries should be presented to Her Excellency at High Table before the feast for judging.

We will continue to utilize our Express Check-In process, so if you want to skip the long lines at the gate, pre-register with a SASE.

Full details (ie. Feast Menu, Schedules, Changes, et al.) of the event will be updated

** Please note, there will be no dayboard at this event. ** We encourage you to provide your own food for the day, and are arranging to have food merchants on-site.
