The proving grounds will be at Belsolda Farm in Harvey, Mi, beginning at 4pm. General entry to the grounds is free for everyone.

** Rules and regulations for the Tournament and for the Archery events: We will be providing all fighters and archers with our own swords, shields, bows, and arrows for this event. This is to create a fair fighting field for all who enter. Feel free to bring your own weapons, bows, and shields, for the fight arena will be open before and after the tournament for friendly duels!
Additionally, we wanted to remind or inform you all of the combat rules that we recognize for our events. There shall be no hits above the shoulders (neck and head shots will not count as hits). Hits that strike the hands or fingers will not count. Hits that strike the feet while they are on the ground will not count (If your feet leave the ground and are struck, it will count as a leg hit). If you are struck in the torso, front or back, that counts as a killing blow. If you are struck in a leg or arm, you "lose" that appendage for the rest of the round, and if you lose 2 appendages, that is a killing blow.
We would absolutely LOVE to see you all fully decked out in your armor, but for the tournament, it will not count as extra hitpoints. We want to make sure that this event is welcoming and fair for all to enter regardless of time or financial commitment to the LARP.
Lastly, we will not be providing adult beverages, but adults who are 21+ will be allowed to bring and partake in drinking adult beverages on the property.
