Crown Tourney in Østgarðr
A Crown Tourney in Ostgardr: Spring 1998 and Spring 2013
In the spring of 1998 the Crown Province of Østgarðr was the host for the East Kingdom’s Crown Tournament. Autocrat for the day was Lady Andrea MacIntyre (now Meesteres Annetje van Woerden). The site was in the Canton of Northpass – a lovely old retreat house and grounds, owned by Episcopal nuns. The tourney yielded up Brion Tarragon and Anna Ophelia Holloway as the new Crown Prince and Princess, and court was a flurry of AoA’s for those in Østgarðr who had become part of the fabric of the local SCA through their work, art and skills.
It’s been 15 years. And there will be a Crown Tournament in Østgarðr again. (more…)
