Feast, Fun and Filking
There are two events definitely worth hitting in the Kingdom of the West this weekend. So take your pick or make it to both if you can. I myself am planning to attend the Japanese MidSummer Feast!
August 18
DeBardchery
This event, located in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park at 47th and Fulton, includes a contest to become the new bard of Cloondara, an archer’s auction and a potluck picnic. The site opens at 10 a.m. and closes at dusk.
Japanese MidSummer Feast
This event, located in Manteca’s Senior Center, is a celebration of Tanaba, the Japanese wishing star festival. The event includes heavy and rapier tournaments, a boffer tournament, Japanese A&S lessons, a Kyogen puppet play. Bring your own bowls, plates and chopsticks. The sites opens at 9:30 a.m. and closes at 8 p.m.
