Date and time
15:00 - 16:00A PROCLAMATION TO THE GOODGYM EBORACUM LEGION
Hear ye, brave souls of the GoodGym Centuria! The Great Festival of Eboracum approaches on the Xth and IXth days before the Kalends of June.
In seasons past, the youth of our colony have gathered at the festival to master the noble script of Latin, engage in tactical games of Latrunculi, and learn the art of smiting barbarians with the finest blades of the Empire. This spectacle promises to be a triumph for every household, yet a shadow looms over the festivities. The grand pavilions—the canvas sanctuaries of our merchants and generals—remain unbuilt. Without their shade, the festival cannot commence.
We require a mighty legion of GoodGym volunteers to march upon the grounds and raise these structures toward the heavens. Your strength is the bedrock upon which this celebration shall stand!
Toga and Galea are optional but encouraged for those wishing to honor the gods of old.
