There are lots of ways to enjoy your interest in the Roman past. On March 22nd, you'll be able to show how in Nijmegen (NL). Reenactors are encouraged to bring their latest kit (or kit in development), wargamers are invited to show how battles are fought in miniature, modellers to display their latest creations, historians are welcome to tell about their latest research, and anyone else with a passion in the Roman past should certainly come and see in which ways you can entertain yourself during dark winter evenings!
Interested? Post here or send me an email if you're planning to come (so we can ensure we've got a sufficient number of tables, etc)

It will be in a room at a cafe, not in the museum. Which one it will be is still unclear, but we hope to know that soon.

Yup, a cafe because that'll keep entry fees non-existant and coffee handy!

Reuze gezellig evenementje, educatief en sociaal interessant en een opsteker voor de hobby, die daar in vele facetten benaderd werd. Op naar de volgende en hulde aan Jasper!
