The following announcement was submitted to the Gazette:

Greetings Cousins!

For those interested in the arts and research, we invite you to join us this weekend at Aedult Swim IV [web link http://aethelmearc.org/event/aedult-swim-iv/ ] (held in the Kingdom of Aethelmearc in Milton PA on Feb 16-17). The 1st floor will be open for all disciplines with several roundtables and group gatherings – Cooking, Brewing, Herbal, Fiber Arts, and more. There will be a class on Research and Documentation by Lady Rosie Dubroc from noon – 1pm followed by the Scribal Tour Workshop.

New this year will be the addition of a Browsing Lib…rary (Coordinated by Baroness Fiadnata ó Gleann Àlainn – Royal University of the Midrealm Librarian). We encourage all who plan on attending to bring their favorite research books to share them with others.

We are a Society that believes in researching and in recreating our findings to the best of our ability. Collectively, we have built up an amazing collection of private libraries in our homes. We invite all of you to bring out some of these books to share with a wider audience so that other researchers (especially those who may be new to research in a particular field) can become aware of all of the resources that are around them. Bring out your favorite sources so we all can benefit from them!

We hope to see you there. Garb is not required but warm clothing is highly encouraged!

Rapier Champs: A request from the Gazette

≈ Comments Off on Rapier Champs: A request from the Gazette

Greetings to the Fencers of the Kingdom from the Editors of the East Kingdom Gazette,

We at the Gazette would again like to report on the King’s and Queen’s Rapier Champion tourney much the same way we do Crown Tourney, as we continue to expand our coverage of important kingdom events and tourneys.

One of the things that makes it easier to cover tourneys like this is having the list of combatants in advance, to make it easier for our on site reporters to get posts up. Unlike Crown Tourney, Rapier Champs has no requirement for a letter of intent or pre-event sign up.

We have created an online poll with the intent of getting as many names as possible pre-typed and spelled correctly. We have the permission of Master Donovan to do so, however this is in no way official or binding. You will still need to sign up for the tourney when you arrive on site. We fully understand that we will not reach every fencer who may be competing, but each fencer we do reach is one more name spelled correctly we won’t have to type in the moment.

The form can be found here

Thank you for helping us share the day with those who are unable to be there.  If you have any questions, please email us at eastkingdomgazette@gmail.com. Please share this widely so that we can reach as many combatants as possible.

≈ Comments Off on BOD- President’s Notes

The President’s Office of the SCA has started publishing meeting notes after quarterly reports. While the minutes will still be approved and published 3-6 months after each meeting, these notes allow SCA participants to more quickly find out some of what has been discussed at each meeting.

From the President’s Page:

“The President of the SCA will publish a report within thirty days following each Board meeting. These reports will contain the publishable summary and commendation sections from each Society Officer’s report, publishable summaries of any Board Committee presentation, and Requests for Commentary. Please send suggestions and/or observations to president@sca.org.

These reports do not replace or represent the minutes of the meetings. Minutes from past meetings can be viewed on the SCA Membership website. Please keep in mind that minutes are not made available until after the Board approves them, usually at the next quarterly meeting.”

The Notes can be found here:
