Canton of Tanwayour
The Canton of Tanwayour mourns the passing of Siobhan Iarconnachtach inghean ui chulachain, MKA Dana Manion.
The next Canton meeting will be held on Sunday, April 4th, 2010 at 12:30pm.

We are the southern most canton in the Barony of Calafia which itself is the southernmost barony in Kingdom of CAID.

Our area comprises San Diego County south of Highway 94, but we welcome all who wish to become a "Tanweirdo" regardless of where you might happen to hang your hat.

Our council meeting is held the same day as brigade practise at 12:30pm at the Allied Gardens Recreation Center.

The Canton of Tanwayour was first created in the early 1990s, and gained official status in 2000. Each year the Canton sponsors the Talanque Tourney for the Barony of Calafia. The Talanque Tourney honors Calafia's founding Baron. This event is combined with the Canton's Anniversary. The tourney has heavy, light, and rapier weapon competitions.

We have added one of the recipes from our 1998 Talanque feast.
