List of classes for 2008:
June 22 - 29th: Modern Ren Intensive. Our summer season expands in 2007 to offer a younger and more fun-loving crowd to enjoy Cascadian adventure at it's finest! We proudly introduce our Modern Renaissance Camps; a distillation of all the crafts, theatrical arts, combat play and experiences available to our training Pages, with an emphasis on fun! Our seven day overnight camps will transport participants into a vibrant environment, half ecological and global exploration and half living history. And all the while, our quintessential Quests are going on behind the scenes. Will they be attacked by marauding Orcs and surprised while taking watch, forced to defend themselves and their comrades in mortal padded combat? Will they reach the buried treasure before the Pirates do? Is that magic sword a blessed relic or a Wizard's binding curse? Only training prowess and an adventurous spirit can win the day! Four sessions will be running this summer, please contact us for specific dates. Two separate programs and two different Quests. Open to participant groups aged 13-17, and 18-22. Every Hero Started Somewhere! Cost: $740 full package. Call early for possible scholarships, if needed.
June 30th - August 12th: Knighthood Intensive. The final stage in the quest for knighthood involves not only a journey into the wilds but also a gathering of the spirit. For it is through charisma and nobility of spirit that a knight is known to the world. The battle training and courses in Knightly valor peaks with our jousting simulators and pillow-flinging siege weapons. The virtues we strive to teach leads the participant through the final stages of the beginning of the self that they will be able to rely on throughout the rest of their lives. Those that feel themselves ready are graduated. Cost: $2480
August 1st - 12th: Pagehood Camp Intensive. Emphasizing the creativity and passion of a broadened mind, the pagehood course is alive with music, drama, dance, and the arts! Students are introduced to the talents of combat and begin the process of relearning themselves, and redefining how far their vision expands. With such classes as Henna, Story and Prose, Study of Planting and Harvest, Heraldry, Belly Dance, Theory of Alchemy etc., there are almost too many possibilities to experience. A page is the symbol of an open mind, and the pagehood camp is full of wonder! Cost: $1280
