Settler's Day September 17-18 2016 Manville, RI

Since 2003, I have been gathering with friends and the public for a display of swords, knives, axes, spears and even some shields and armor. Barring undo weather, we will be under some pines, just inside the compound. It is a great opportunity to share with the public and get together with friends. There are often targets to cut. The mat guy appreciates donations if wanting to cut. There are a wide variety of swords and knives. I bring in antiques from the 18th-20th century.. Usually a great many eagle pommel swords.

The weekend has many activities run by the club, including the firearms ranges. Those club activities are ticket based, while there are other vendors and reenactors setting up. No two years have been the same but regulars include a few Civil War guys and a blacksmith. A busy weekend in New England but we often see a group come in as a drum circle. Johnny Cash, Elvis and old tyme fiddlers, as well as food. Family friendly, the event is a large local draw. BYO chairs and sundries.

Shuttles run from a parking lot by the big road and if wanting to share items at our tables let me know. The club is very open to any and all displays and vendors. If wishing to as an independent, just let the club know.. I am generally setting up by about 8am and things wind down by about 5pm.
