Unto our Cousins, we do send our heartfelt greetings
and news of the NorthEast Banner War 2005.
We so look forward to seeing familiar faces and meeting new members of
our Adria family. Please come and join us for a weekend of fun and fellowship.
It is our hope to make this war memorable for all. The greatly anticipated
return of our younger cousins is reportedly close at hand. This will be
a weekend to celebrate them and their patience thru what must have seemed
like an ordeal to them.

Greenbank Mill is a beautiful site. It is a 1700’s working wool
manufacturing mill, complete with sheep and period demonstrations of the
process from “Sheep to Shawl”. Shaded in areas and bright
and sunny in others, it has room for warring (including a bridge!), archery,
and camping. Tony, the Mill’s proprietor, has gladly offered tours
of the mill and a class on spinning and weaving wool.
Site Costs: $15.00 per person participating in the event.
Fees can be paid at Friday evening or at registration Saturday morning.
