[SORE] Southern Ohio Resource and Education Servant's Retreat coming to Philadelphia PA
Nine years of fortifying great
service…
March 4-6, 2011
Philadelphia PA
At Retreat, we will explore in depth who we are as submissives,
servants, bottoms, slaves, boys, girls, etc. This retreat will not
provide you with uniform answers- there are no patent answers. It is
designed to provide you with tools that may allow you to find your
answers while enhancing your service and self. This is an intensive,
interactive weekend. This is not a service 101 course of study. Each
session has worksheets and focuses on a different emotional or
intellectual area of service. Be prepared to explore yourself.
This weekend was created for people who submit and serve. It is for
people who are 24/7, who serve a few hours a month, or anywhere in
between. It is open to all genders and orientations. It is not about
fantasy but the realities of service.
Some of the concepts we explore are: who we are; submission and self
esteem; our past/present and how that effects our service; maintaining
submission; training; self-maintenance; punishment and reward; growth
and much more.
Some comments from past participants:
"Open, honest, probing.... Be prepared to see your world turned inside
out and have some cob webs exposed to the light of day." K.J.
"It was insightful, scary, deep and very emotional. The idea and skills
I learned here were remarkable... The hole I felt in my chest is gone!
I now have an action plan..." A. L.
"Very introspective-learned about myself and how I can be better in my
service. I am still looking for my Dominant (I know he's out there) and
I know now how I do myself service in finding the right Dominant for
me!" K.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.
Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.
As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.
We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.
Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.
Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"
A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?
After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...
Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
