Greetings from Fighter Support!

Due to changes made by the BOD, the Office of Waterbearing no longer exists. This does not mean that the nature of what we do does not exist. It means that we are now a free standing group of like minded individuals that support the populous, fighters and spectators. Ensuring that water, sports drinks, fruits and snacks are made available to keep the populous well hydrated.

We are now called
Fighter Support

Our goal is to provide a staffed Fighter Support station for the following activities:

• Heavy Weapons - Fort, Hastings Field, Ravine
• Rapier - Fort, Hastings Field, Ravine
• Equestrian
• Coursing
• Target Archery
• Live Weapons

We plan on having each Fighter Support station open 1 hour before the battles start and will remain open and staffed for the duration of the fighting. The Main Point by the Fort will open around 0800, and remain open until the fighting & clean-up is done for the day.

To insure that everyone enjoys themselves there are also several hydration points located around the event site-Front & Back Gates, Scribes, Chirurgeon Point, etc…

In order to reach this goal we will need YOUR help. Please volunteer at the main Fighter Support station, located by the Fort, on the Main Field. Volunteer lots! It’s good for you and for your Kingdom!

A few things to remember:

1. You must be 18 years of age to be Figher Support on a fighting field.
   **Please note that we can ALWAYS use the help, even if your are under 18!!**
2. If you are 13-17, your parent or legal guardian must sign you up to help Fighter Support.
3. If you are 12 or under, your parent or legal guardian must sign you up AND help Fighter Support with you!! 
4. To provide Fighter Support outside of the main Fort Station you Must have on closed shoes. This is a safety issue, and will be checked. Also, no glass or live steel is allowed out on the field. It is recommended to have your lower legs covered when providing support in the Ravine battle due to briars and thorns, and that you wear clothes you can move freely in.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!

Help yourself,
