To the south of RhyDin city amidst rolling, forested hills a glen is nestled. It's a valley saturated with magic, a place sought out by creatures of the woods and humans seeking refuge from the city alike. Narrow towards the east, the glen opens up onto a small lake at the western end.
Caves and tunnels burrow into the surrounding hills, many still unexplored and hiding the treasures of the earth. Some have a faint light from coming within, some are just dark with shadow.
A small, under-traveled path leads to a glade west of the glen with a small pool off to the one side that is fed by an underground spring. The pool spills off into a small stream that winds its way through the trees until it eventually reaches the lake.

Citizens Day Air Show and Fireworks Display
The final day of Citizens Day Weekend sees the wrap-up of the Carnival in the Marketplace, and the arrival of an Air Show on Sunday evening in the Southern Glen.
Numerous historic and modern air craft will be on display in the Glen for citizens to walk around and explore before, during and after the air show itself. Monoplanes, biplanes, military aircraft and even an experimental glider used by the RASG will be there for people to view, touch and " for a few lucky visitors " possibly sit in the pilot's seat.

During the air show, which will begin at 8:15 sharp!, stunt pilots will awe and fascinate the crowds with their feats of derring-do, performing barrel rolls, dives and loops so extreme that everyone will want to hold their breath.

The Silver Mark Brewery will be hosting a large beer tent near the lake, where beer flight samplers of the brewery's wares can be tasted. Half-pints and pints of their most popular brews will be on sale as well to satisfy the thirst, and root beer and Zeppa lemon-lime soda will be on tap for the little ones.

Huge pots of both red and white clam chowder and loaves of crusty RhyDin sourdough bread can be purchased at the beer tent, or you may simply pack a picnic meal from home and enjoy a tasty dinner or snack while watching the show.

Don't forget to bring chairs or blankets with you to sit on!
After sundown, when the air show has concluded, a fireworks display will round out the evening, bringing this year's Citizens Day weekend to a close with a bang!
