Advance heralds’ notice for Crown Tournament

Posted by
Good gentles all,
 This message is going out on multiple message boards, and I apologize to those who receive it more than once.
 In just over a month- 37 days to be precise- Calontir will be holding its Spring Crown Tournament in the Shire of Wyvern Cliffe.  And while there are several notable events happening between now and then, i.e. Gulf Wars and Kingdom Arts & Sciences, the Crown Tournament should also be on everyone’s mind, as this is indeed the tournament which ensures the continuation of the Falcon Throne.  Thus, to facilitate the tournament’s smooth operation, we will need list heralds!
In the coming weeks, I would ask that any herald who can attend Spring Crown(or, for that matter, any Calontiri with a strong voice) consider volunteering at the list table when March 29th comes around.  I know most, if not all of us, are busy with event prep for Gulf and or Kingdom A&S, but if you are considering volunteering, please contact me offlist and I will gladly accept your help.  If you won’t know for sure until the event, then come find me at the table alongside the list field on the 29th.  I will be bringing Oreos for my helpers!
I would ask that regional heralds please forward this message to their respective groups.
Ever in service,
HL Johann
Battleur Herald

Auditions for SCA Movie

Posted by

For: Short film titled, “Fighter”

What: At a recreational medieval fighting event, a young, new fighter must choose between the code of honor among knights and his last opportunity to stand out for the girl he loves.

From: Adam Walker & Crew

Date: 2/13/2014

Contact: Email Adam Walker at: awalkerV08@gmail.com or give him a call/leave a voicemail at: 660-351-4649. More information at: http://awalkerv08.wix.com/shortfilmfighter

When: Production will begin mid-March, Auditions will be scheduled two weeks prior.

We Will Be Casting:

We will be casting two main roles and three minor roles.

The first role is part of the main “bad guy”, but he is not necessarily so, a big, imposing kind-of guy. He is an experienced knight and fighter, a bit on the older side, but a major threat on the field.

The second role is the part of the main character. This character is a rather new fighter, still pretty green and moderately vulnerable, but he is determined and eager to prove himself. He appears to be in the age range of 20-25-ish.

The minor roles that we are casting for are as follows: two fighters and a herald.

If you are interested in any of these roles, please contact Adam Walker directly at the information above.

The Falcon Banner is seeking reporters, editors

Posted by

The Falcon Banner only works if the news gets into it. Eventually we will have a streamlined way to submit items but, for now, please send your items to Mistress Kateryn de Devlyn at nickieandme@gmail.com. We especially need event reports, with pictures.

The Banner also needs editors. The model for The Falcon Banner is based on The East Kingdom Gazette which has multiple editors who rotate the daily duty of receiving, editing, and posting the news items submitted. This keeps the duty from being too onerous for any one person. We also need editors to specialize in various areas of interest to write and or solicit articles. If you are interested in helping out, also contact Mistress Kateryn.

Calon Cross and Pelican Yahoo Groups

Posted by
Greetings to the members of the Calon Cross and the Calontir Pelicans,
As the winter is winding down (hopefully) plans for the spring and summer are starting to take shape.  In fact, right now, Contesse Issabell is scheduling out the Lilies War Cross/Pelican troll shift.  And, while you might say, “but Lilies is months away”, it’s (almost) never too early to start planning

If you would like to be kept in the loop about this and other discussions perhaps, you should think about joining the orders’ yahoo groups!

But, what happens on the yahoo groups you ask?

Well there have been discussions on philosophy, meeting announcements, vigil reminders, scheduling activities, and general camaraderie.  However, there are not candidate discussions.  Those are saved for other, more private discussions and order meetings.

For more information, and to join the groups, visit:

If you have any questions, just ask!

Thanks,
Rebecca
