[ATL] Tourney of Ymir XXXIII

description:
"From the fury of the Northmen, O Lord deliver us." Strap on fur and buckle leather. Hone your ax and stow your gear. Set your sail for the southlands And the Tourney of Ymir.

Do you lust for battle? Join us!
Strive with warriors far and near.
Bring your hoard of hammered silver.
Many merchants gather here.

Gather in our grander feast hall.
Bring your brew and mugs along.
Meat and mead and warmth and laughter,
Gracious gifts and soaring song.

Thaw the thews that long have rested
While the winds of winter chill.
'Tis the time to go a-viking
Yearly in Windmaster's Hill.

Unless you are the child's parent or legal guardian, we must have a properly completed and notarized Minor Medical Authorization Form if you're bringing a minor child.
