Events in Appledore
Shire business meetings are held once a quarter, usually on a Sunday afternoon. Because our shire is farflung, it's usually possible for one or two people to Skype or Facetime to the meeting if there's advance notice. Contact the seneschal for more information.
Appledore's primary annual event is the Tournament of the Golden Swan, always over Canadian Thanksgiving, the weekend that includes the second Monday of October. For information, please go to the Golden Swan website, www.goldenswan.org
