-**Action / Adventure** is a series of somewhat loosely related events, having as a common theme the call to high adventure and one's response to that call - in literature, the cinema, and in real life.  We have a strong series of presentations on the Western Martial Arts, examinations of stunt fighting as it is portrayed and choreographed in the movies, and other related topics.  In part, it is a re-creation of the [[http://pc8.penguicon.org/events.php?track=mayhem|(prior to year 2010) "Mayhem" track]], but we intend for it to be so much more.  For **2014**, we are pleased and honored to have the [[http://www.polarisfellowship.com|Polaris Fellowship of Weapons Study]] return to give us practical instruction in the use of various deadly pointed and edged things.  We will also bring back the always popular "Open Source Martial Arts" information swap session.
