Food: The Barony will be providing delicious tri-tip and turkey for the populace with the purchase of their site token. In return the barony asks that guests contribute a side dish that feeds 8-10 to the potluck. Please feel free to bring your specialties or, if you are stumped, consult the list below:
SCA First Name A-D: Appetizers (breads, cheeses, dips); SCA First Name E-K: Salads (wet or dry); SCA First Name L-R: Side dishes (hot or cold); SCA First Name R-Z: Dessert.
There will be plugs available for heated serving dishes. Please supply your own serving utensils. Make sure everything is labeled and provide a list of ingredients for the allergy stricken.
Activities: As is tradition, Angels Yule will have a plethora of activities for the populace to have fun and win prizes.
Bardic Competition- There will be a No Holds Bardic competition to determine the new Angels Bardic champion for the year. If you would like to enter please send an email to our current Bardic Champion, Lady Malie Arbuthnott at yule@sca-angels.org before December 1 to sign up. Both groups and individuals are invited to perform and you do not need to enter the contest to perform. We ask that you do, however, make your piece family appropriate.
Table Decorating Competition- As is tradition, Angels will be hosting its annual table decorating competition. Entries will be judged directly after court. Prizes for `Toys of Yore' themed and non-themed tables will be awarded.
Dessert Competition- The dessert competition will be judged for period and non-period entries. Please make sure your entry will serve at least 6 portions (more for the potluck is always encouraged!)
Ornament Raffle- Homemade or purchased ornaments are welcome as donations to the ornament raffle. Each person who donates an ornament will receive one raffle ticket and additional tickets may be purchased throughout the event for $1.00. The ornaments will be distributed before closing court.
Games Competition- The Inn of the Crimson spade will again be hosting the Angels' Gaming championship in a format of their choosing.
Toys for Tots Drive- Times are hard, but explaining to a child why they don't have any presents during the holidays is even harder. The Angels Yule Toys for Tots drive has raised hundreds of dollars worth of Holiday Joy over the past few years for children who may not otherwise get presents. Please bring any unwrapped, unopened new toy to donate. These toys will be donated to the Midnight Mission in downtown LA.
