Friends of Filk
Portland OR
Friends of Filk is a non-profit association of filk volunteers
from the Pacific Northwest which raises funds by selling filk/folk
music, songbooks, etc. at various local sf conventions (primarily
Orycon, Rustycon, Dreamcon, Norwescon and the odd Pacific NW-based
Westercons) and uses these funds to:
a) sponsor special guests at local conventions.  
b) provide a portable photocopiers at conventions and filk circles.
c) publish the occasional newsletter announcing filk events.

We are currently trying to arrange for a regular song circle room at
one of the local colleges.

 be related to life in the SCA / "Current Middle Ages"
