The Shire of Drakenmere would like to invite you to attend


January 25 - 27, 2008

Indian Springs State Park - Flovilla, Georgia



You are invited to attend Jour d'Amour III: Viking Love and experience a weekend of fun and friends. Get your team together for the IRON GARB II competition! We are also hosting a skaldic competition and a tablet weaving contest. Come see the beautiful Valkyries escort heroic warriors off the field of battle!

As this year's event has a Viking theme, many of Shire of Drakenmere will be wearing Viking garb to help set the stage.  We invite all who wish to participate by wearing Viking garb to please do so!   If you need some simple patterns for ladies' wear, they can be found here: Viking Apron (can be worn over a simple T-tunic or over the Viking Underdress), Viking Underdress, Viking Cap. Viking brooches and other accessories can be found at Raymond's Quiet Press and other places on the Internet.

JdA III is also proud to be the event hosting the
Meridies Heraldic Symposium
