When in session, we meet on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday nights each month from September through May. Official start time is 7:30PM but many people show up anytime after 7:00PM. Meetings generally run until approximately 9:30pm

Our normal meeting location is Room 128, Wallis Hall, Traill College at Peterborough's Trent University. This is the downtown campus.

If you are walking, it is at the top of a hill which you have to walk up from any direction you travel. There is parking available on London Street itself or also on London in the lot directly south of the campus - these are the closest locations to Room 102. There is also a small parking lot off Dublin Street on the north side of Wallis Hall. This is the closest parking location to Room 128.

Wallis Hall is building #1 on the map. As the building is currently under renovation, the entry points are not always up to date here. At the current time, the door closest to London Street is generally unlocked until approximately 8pm. The door is accessed down the steps on the left of the front porch of Crawford House (#4). Parking is on London Street directly or on the lot between Langdon and Bradburn Houses (#7 & 8).

Our weekly meetings follow a general, but not absolute, rotation.

The second and fourth Wednesdays of the month are our official meetings. During these nights, official canton business will be brought forward and discussed. This can involve planning of upcoming events, travel plans for events further afield, any business of any of the Canton officers along with any questions for the officiers from any of the members of the Canton. After the brief business portion, we will typically have a presentation, discussion or workshop often led by a guest speaker. Topics can vary considerably and have included discussions on medieval law, Viking blacksmithing, hands-on calligraphy and illiumination techniques, historical overviews of the Kings and Queens of England and many more.

The first and third meeting of the month is a general Arts & Sciences night. On these nights, we will work on personal projects, discuss any and all topics that come to mind and generally socialize. Often we include a movie on these nights to keep the mood light and fun-filled. These nights are held off-site at the home of one of the members of the Canton. Please email for details or check the Canton Calendar.

In those months with a fifth Wednesday, we will occasionally hold a medieval dance practice. This often depends on room availability as our preferred choice is the student lounge of Traill College known as "The Trend". It is at the north end of Wallis Hall. Specific room location is posted that night. Our dance mistress, Lady Uracca, will lead any and all willing participants in medieval dance accompanied by period music (on CD).

Full details and specifics of each week can be found on the Canton Calendar.
