Summer Hunt~the other Sport of Kings! is the premier event of [[Earnrokke]].Always wondered what nobleman did when they weren't at war? What was a favorite pastime of Royalty? What outdoor activity did women ride astride at and carry their own birds of prey with equal ability  to the men? It was hunting!  Several Kings wrote their own books on this sport, many illuminations showed women riding to the hunt, and falconry was enjoyed by everyone. This is an event not to be missed and it will be your chance to learn about period hunting techniques and game, hunting weapons, and animals used for hunting in period. 


The '''Shire of Earnrokke''' (Whidbey Island, WA) is located in the central region of An Tir.

Subject: report
 
 
 
 
 
 
From: Lord Johannes Von Morgarten, Summer Hunt Autocrat
To: All the Fine An Tiran's and Out of Kingdom Guest's that attended Summer
Hunt A.S. XLI
 
 
*FORRESTER (HUNTING ON FOOT)-the Master Julian Memorial Summer Hunt Champion is Richard de Touchet
 
(2nd place, Banu Shadhra Aliya --12 contestants)
 
 
*Summer Hunt Equestrian Champion is HL Donwenna La Mareschale riding Antares
 
(2nd place, Mistress Yaasmiina of Artimesia; 3rd was Sir Jerald on
Valerius-competing in a field of 15 riders).
 
*Earnrokke Heavy Weapons Champion is Lord Palladius Hibernia who defended his title
from last year. Congratulations to Lord Palladius!!!
 
*Earnrokke A&S Champion is Banu Shadhra Aliya
 
 
 
Autocrat's tidbits:
 
*Rider Auction-Earnrokke fundraiser went extremely well. (HL Donwenna was bought by Ladies Ceridwen and Georgette of Intriguing Designs, The HL Donwenna won the competion, so they won the treasure chest). Apologies for
Kolfinna for having to get auctioned off first cause folks didn't understand how to bid. It was very humorous when bidders allied to combine their funds to purchase riders! The highest sale was Duchess Angharad to Duchess Elspeth. A special thanks to Duchess Elspeth for kicking off the Rider auction in to a real bidding war.
 
*Dog Barding contests-Lady Marguerite Fitz Williams won most period dog barding with her dog Mischief, wearing household badge on his outfit.
 
Lady Ceridwen's dog Zeus, won for most adorable wearing his 'mongol hat and coat'
 
16 total riders! 14 riders rode advanced , 1 rode BEG, and 1 exhibition run by HL Thorkel Haraldsson featured a mounted archery & javelin on the first leg of the course--which no one else had done. Over half the riders did mounted archery and almost
every single rider did the two-handed boar spearing at the handgallop. A difficult challenge  course unlike any ever seen before that was  run by exceptionally skilled group of riders. No unauthorized dismounts; no overheating problems.
 
Kudos on ground crew go to HL Sven innHeldt, Master Togrul and Lord Arn.
Several youngsters ran weapons outside the field back to the staging area, especially noted m'lord Magic the Fierce, Page to HL Donwenna.
 
*A friendship treaty was presented by the B&B of Aquaterra to Earnrokke! We love Their Excellencies!
Aquaterra provided amazing support for this event with help on Court
Heraldry (thanks HL Alan), on gate (HL Marie Chante) and Thrown weapons
(darts!).
 
*Special thanks to the Kingdom Officers who came out & supported Earnrokke's 2nd Annual Summer Hunt:
 
Master Togrul Guiscard, KEO;
 
Master Ian, Kingdom Constable;
 
Banu Shadhra Aliya, Kingdom Archery Marshal.
 
 
 
 
My special congratulations to all of the Winners of the various competition's.
May you all succeed in defending your Championships next year at Summer Hunt.
 
Lord Johannes VonMorgarten, Autocrat for Summer Hunt II
