NorCal 2010 1 2

Okay, gang, NorCal is coming up soon. One of the biggest, most heavily attended events on the pirate calendar. Those of you who have been, know what I mean. NorCal is HUGE. It also has the added attraction of the schooner Aldebaran doing a ship to shore cannon battle both days. ( I should know, I be part of her crewe!) So, start thinking about heading to the Bay of Saint Francis come June—traditionally on Father's Day weekend. Tales of the Seven Seas will be there, as usual, so come on by and say howdie.

Just an update on this historical reenactment, but since it'll take a lot of doing to come off, Methinks a thread for discussion be in order......... Re: The Bougainville Voyage, June 2005, and 'Royaliste' Thank you for your timely note. I am meeting with the Lake Champlain basin Program office in Vermont in several weeks to discuss the inclusion of The Bougainville Voyage in their 2005 Workplan. If accepted, this would allow application for funding to allow partial support for participating US vessels, which naturally could include 'Royaliste'.

Chareston, SC is having it's 2nd Annual Maritime Festival on June 17th-20th.

So although I am mostly focused on organizing the May Santa Maria event right now.. it is likely a good time to start up discussions around this event. I will be the main cat-herder for this one again this year for the re-enactment encampment, and will be meeting with the festival organizer later this week or middle of next week (pending his schedule) to go over things with him. Anyone have ideas/suggestions/concerns they think I should bring up with the event organizer? (Within reason). Suggestions or ideas welcome even from well wishers that are unable to attend, but the ideas from those coming will obviously get more attention. Over the past few years they have cover…
