SpringWar is a fully catered event with all food being provided as part of the event price. We do offer an ‘off board’ price, which means that the attendee will be responsible for providing their own food for the event. People who choose to go ‘off board’ will not be provided with cooking facilities by the event. They may bring their own cooking facilities, such as gas burners, but will not be allowed to operate cooking fires.
While every attempt will be made to cater to dietary requirements, the kitchens at springwar are run by volunteers, and as such we may not be able to cater for all restrictions. Dietary restrictions can be given as part of the booking process, and if there is a problem meeting your specific requirements, the event steward may request that you go ‘off board’ for the event.
Note: As is the custom with SCA events, you are expected to bring your own Feasting Gear to the event.
Feasting Gear consists of any eating and drinking implements. We recommend bringing a plate, bowl, cup, and cutlery. Washing up stations will be provided at each meal to enable you to wash up your feasting gear, but there will not be a washing up service. Cleaning up your own feasting gear is your responsibility.
