Canton Des Forges presents:
Diverse Pleasures V
January 26th, 2007
Our Lady of Lourdes
980 Huffman Road, Birmingham, Al 35215
Join us for a day of pleasuring the mind through interesting and entertaining classes. This event will include topics so diverse that everyone will find something to love. We will keep young ones (5+) busy with a Bocce' tournament while the parents feast their minds. For the body, a sumptuous Irish feast from the kitchen of Baron Sir Jean Claude von Adlerstaat. For the less intellectually interested, an area will be available for pickup fighting, weather permitting. Classes include: Blacksmithing, Custom Arrow Making, Leather Pouch Class, Block Printing, Embroidery, Medieval Games and much more! Also a Fund-raiser lunch and silent auction.
If there are any dietary concerns, please contact the Feastcrat.

Directions:
Take your best route to I-59, exit 134 (Roebuck Pkwy, to Hwy75). At the light at the bottom of the ramp,
a – if you are on I-59 South, turn right, downhill, AWAY from residential area
b – if you are on i_59 North, turn left, downhill, AWAY from residential area
Go through 7 more lights, approx 1.4 miles, and look for Parkway Christian Fellowship church on right. Immediately past Parkway Christian Fellowship, you will turn right into Our Lady of Lourdes parking lot. Voila! If you pass Wendys on the left and Shell & BP on the right, you went one light too far – turn around!
