Lionsdale Revels in Learning!

The Shire of Lionsdale celebrates it's love of learning with an evening Revel in the midst of two full days of learning.

Come join us on the weekend of October 28th and 29th at the German Canadian Club Hall in Chilliwack BC.

The Revel begins at 7PM on Saturday evening, followed by dancing, games, stories and song. There will be a wet-bar run by the German Canadian Club members available. Please bring your own (non-alcoholic) beverage, feast gear, and a feast contribution in the form of snack or finger type food (no heating or refrigeration required). Some food items may also be purchased from the Lionsdale Crew at reasonable cost to ease the burden of far-flung travellers.

The doors for the event will open at 8:30 am both days with classes running from 9am - 1pm, breaking for lunch and resuming at 2pm. Classes end and dinner begins at 6pm. Bring your food, or purchase on-site from Lionsdale for a nominal fee.

Class offerings and schedules will follow and are by pre-registration, although any classes that are not filled may take drop-in students at the discretion of the teacher. Registration forms will be available at regular Lionsdale Practices, or by contacting one of the autocrats (as soon as the class offerings are finalised).

We regret that children cannot be accommodated on-site during class time, please make other arrangements for daycare so as to not interfere with other students study enjoyment.

All entrances to the site are reached via long stairs, which can be difficult for mobility-challenged participants. However, we do have stalwart volunteers willing to assist anyone willing to brave the challenge in order to attend!

Site fee is $5. per person, whether or not classes or the Revel are attended.

-Ayame was born into a family of well-known individuals. Her father (Ashida no Masayoshi) specialized in making katana and dai-katana for the head samurai at kamakura. Her grandmother (fathers's mother, Ashida Tsuzune) was a famous herblist. Her grandfather (mothers father, Ito no Kazuhiro) before he died was a buddhist priest. Her mother (Ito Tomoe) before giving birth to Ayame and dying, was a very profitable artisan, selling pottery, baskets, and the like. When Ayame was growing up she enjoyed many things: practicing Kyudo (the way of the bow), painting, playing music on her shakuhachi, and reading zen buddhist scriptures.

-The family name Ashida came from her fathers side. The literal translation of Ashida is "water shoes" as in the sandals that are approx 4-5 inches tall as one walks in the ride paddy feilds with them on, as to not get too muddy. She took his name, and the complete name in full Ashida no Ayame, because she is the last of her clan and the name Ashida. This occured after her village was burned to the ground, where it stood close to kamakura. The reason for the destruction was the samurai of Ashikaga Takauji, headed for kamakura to overthrow the shogun there. Anything in their path that had to do with the regiment there, they destroyed. Unfortunatly it was Ayame's father and grandmother that were killed in the attack.

-She was told when she was younger that she had a distant cousin, who like Ayame, had suffered a great deal of things. She traveled across Japan, selling her paintings for money, learning new things along the way. As she boarded a small boat the was heading for Oki Island, she took a last look at the place she once thought of as home. Landing in the harbour, she asked many a people in the villages if they new of her cousin.
