The Celebration for Mina and Marcus' marriage was held on the fencing green in Auburn.
The weather turned out to be delightfully warm with a cool breeze for anyone
who wanted one. Fencers and their friends and family came to watch the Diamond
Rose and friends fence each other for prizes. After signing up on the lists, the fencers for the round robin tournament began picking their bouting partners as they needed. After a short break, the next game of two-on-two duels began. Listmistress Dianna did a fine job this day, her first time being a list mistress. After this double elimination tournament, it was time for afternoon repast and then melee scenarios like capture the flag. The weather was perfect for the day's event. In the end, Justin Dixon won the round robin tournament, Seth and Lysander followed, the team of Laura and Justin won the team duel, and AJ got a prize for best performance. Thank you to every single person who helped set up, tear down, brought food, helped with the lists and in general was a great member of the Diamond Rose family. Fun events like this could not happen without your assistance and dedication. |
