EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT
Coventry, RI 02816 
Their Royal Highnesses have chosen a lovely lake-side spot to celebrate their coronation. They would have you come and make this a weekend to remember. Last court of Gregor and Kiena is scheduled for 11am. We hope to serve feast about 6pm.
A delicious day board will be prepared by the revered Arianwen of Urquhart. Anyone who has been lucky enough to sample her food will attest to the pleasure that it evokes. Recipes are in keeping with the AngloSaxon tastes of our new King UPDATE: Arianwen will be unable to join us due to a death in the family. Johan Wanderer and the rest of the kitchen staff will attempt do justice to the plans and recipes she has worked so hard on.
There will be a feast prepared by Fergus Redmeade and Elspeth Kyfe of Neddingham; mistress of House Lucerna. "Above the salt" will feature very fine and elegant fare and will be seated inside the hall which is warmed by two large fireplaces. "Below the salt" will feature slightly simpler fare and will be seated in a large tent overlooking the lake.
UPDATE: "Above the salt" seats are SOLD OUT! There is a waiting list. If you ask for "above the salt" you will be given "below the salt" reservation(s) and on the waiting list for "above the salt".
