'''Where:''' [[Rincon Valley Community Park]] in Santa Rosa, California ([http://www.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=5108+Badger+Rd+Santa+Rosa,+CA Click For Map & Directions]) The park is located next to the Rincon Valley Library and Maria Carrillo High School, and can be accessed from Montecito Boulevard, Badger Road, or Rick Drive. We practice in the center of the park near the picnic tables and firepits, which are beneath the shade trees along the creek. There are several large open grassy areas, a water fountain, and restrooms in the vicinity.<br><br>

There are several large open grassy areas for battle, a water fountain, and restrooms.<br><br>
  
'''What:''' These practices focus on introducing new players to different game types and basic fighting techniques, as well as general rules and etiquette. Realm equipment is available (in moderate supply) and can be used freely by newcomers and those who have not yet made their own gear and garb.<br><br>
+
'''What:''' Our weekly practices typically involve several different types of battles and games. New players are certainly welcome to come out and give it a try, we are happy to help everyone gain command of the basic rules of the game. A good deal of loaner equipment is on hand for anyone without their own.<br><br>
Tournaments will be held depending on attendance and winners will be rewarded with prizes. A modest feast will be served around 2:00pm during the mid-practice siesta on a first-come first-serve basis. (We ask those with particular dietary concerns to contact us ahead of time or bring their own fare).<br><br>
+
We typically grill a group lunch toward the end of practice. If you want to be included in the meal join our [http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=205217392852072 Facebook group] and let us know you are planning to attend.<br><br>
  
'''Who:''' Novices & Newcomers are welcome! Anyone 14 years or older can play. Those under 18 years must bring a liability waiver signed by a parent or guardian - the [[Minor Generic Waiver]] found on this wiki will do. Old goats, veterans and players with limited experience in [[Belegarth]], [[Dagorhir]], or other full contact medieval combat games are also very welcome at Beginner Practices & Games.<br><br>
+
'''Who:''' Newcomers are welcome regardless of experience. Anyone 14 years or older can play, but if you're under 18 you'll need to bring a parent or guardian along to sign our realm-specific [[waiver]] for minors. Adult participants will also be asked to sign an adult [[waiver]].<br><br>
  
'''What To Bring:''' Safety equipment such as mouth guards, knee pads, gloves, and athletic cups (strongly recommended). [[Garb]] is encouraged but not required. Bring your own full contact foam weapons and shields if you have them, though some gear and [[garb]] will be available for general use. Drinking water is available on site, but you may still want to bring your own. If you are under 18, be sure to bring a parent or guardian along to sign a liability [[waiver]].<br><br>

'''What To Bring:''' Safety equipment such as mouth guards, knee pads, gloves, and athletic cups if you so desire. [[Garb]] is certainly encouraged but it's not required for rookies. If you have your own full-contact foam fighting equipment bring it with you and we'll check it for safety and [[Book of War|BoW]] compliance. There's a nice cool water fountain right next our fields, but if you prefer Gatorade or the like bring your own. Remember to bring a parent or guardian along to sign a liability [[waiver]] if you are a minor.<br><br>
All participants must agree to abide by the rules set forth in the [[Book of War]] and will be asked to sign liability [[waiver]]s. Participants must agree to conduct themselves in a gentle and respectful manner, and to play safely at all times.

===Inter-Realm Battles===
+
 
+
Dun'Aeareans will hopefully have the chance to participate in a planned rotation of monthly Multi-[[Realm]] Battles in the Bay Area. These gatherings will include fighters from [[Fortriu]], [[Pelargir]], Mallenorod (a local [[Dagorhir]] chapter), Raen Dun'Aear, [[Salamandastron]], and [[Saracor]].<br><br>
+
 
+
Inter-[[Realm]] Battles will be run in the style of regional-/national-[[events]]. That is to say that [[garb]] will be required, players will be encouraged to fight at their best, and the hosting [[realm]] will field yellow-clad [[Marshal]]s that provide formal weapons checking and keep watch over game play. These Battles will be ideal for those interested in experiencing  regional [[events]], as well as for those who want to fight in larger games with fresh faces and different combat styles.

Sunday Practice & Games

When: Every Sunday from 12:00pm (noon) until 3:30 pm. Get invitations on Facebook by joining our Facebook group

Where: Rincon Valley Community Park in Santa Rosa, California (Click For Map & Directions) We practice in the center of the park near the picnic tables and BBQs, which are beneath the shade trees along the creek. There are several large open grassy areas for battle, a water fountain, and restrooms.

What: Our weekly practices typically involve several different types of battles and games. New players are certainly welcome to come out and give it a try, we are happy to help everyone gain command of the basic rules of the game. A good deal of loaner equipment is on hand for anyone without their own.

We typically grill a group lunch toward the end of practice. If you want to be included in the meal join our Facebook group and let us know you are planning to attend.

Who: Newcomers are welcome regardless of experience. Anyone 14 years or older can play, but if you're under 18 you'll need to bring a parent or guardian along to sign our realm-specific waiver for minors. Adult participants will also be asked to sign an adult waiver.

What To Bring: Safety equipment such as mouth guards, knee pads, gloves, and athletic cups if you so desire. Garb is certainly encouraged but it's not required for rookies. If you have your own full-contact foam fighting equipment bring it with you and we'll check it for safety and BoW compliance. There's a nice cool water fountain right next our fields, but if you prefer Gatorade or the like bring your own. Remember to bring a parent or guardian along to sign a liability waiver if you are a minor.

All participants must agree to abide by the rules set forth in the Book of War and will be asked to sign liability waivers. Participants must agree to conduct themselves in a safe and respectful manner, and to play responsibly.


Local Events in 2011

Bay Area Battles

Every month or two several compatible groups of foam fighters in the San Fransisco bay area have a good old fashioned day battle. These gatherings typically include fighters from Raen Dun'Aear, Mallenorod (a local Dagorhir chapter), Salamandastron, Saracor, and sometimes from Fortriu, other distant California realms, or local Amtgard players. When hosted by Mallenorod, the Dagorhir rules are followed.

Bay Area Battles are one day mini-events. Minimum garb is required, and the hosting realm provides Marshals to perform Weapons Check and keep watch over game play. These battles are a great way for us to mingle with other local fighters and enjoy the fun of a larger battle than you get at individual realm practices.
