Players are eliminated either by being tagged three times by their opponent or losing contact with the box. $5 entry (cash or credit). First place wins free admission to next year’s event. Second place a bottle of mead. The specially designed wood box will then be auctioned on Sunday. Design motif this year is honor of Her Lady, Freyja.
