May Crown 2025 is just a few days away!
May Crown is once again being held at the Grandview Country Park/Yakima Valley Fairgrounds. Please come join us to witness the tournament to choose An Tir’s next Heirs! There will be a host of activities from fighting of all disciplines to A&S Classes, Equestrian, Merchants and the return of the May Crown Eric Party!
Weather update — The temps are going to be cool during the day and cold at night, so it’s great Wool Weather! Winds look to be moderate, and there’s a slight change of rain Saturday.
