But mayhap these entertainments seem a tad tame to you. Perhaps you want ACTION -- and DANGER! You want to see swordfighting and jousting -- grown men and women flailing at each other with spears and maces and swords! You've come to the right place, then: aye, the Withrow Renaissance Festival has combat aplenty to keep your heart racing and your pulse, pounding!

Members of the Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA), an international organization for the recreation of Medieval life and times, will be on hand with live combat demonstrations. SEE both melee and individual duels with swords and pikes...

Then watch unarmored members of Noble Cause ferociously duel one-on-one with wooden staves...

Or charge furiously into the lists, meeting each other with the thunderous crash! of lance upon shield!

But beware! Even the Faire ladies of Withrow come armed and dangerous!!!
