Barony of Stormhold

What is the SCA and what sorts of things do we do worldwide?

The Society for Creative Anachronism is an international, non-profit, educational society celebrating pre-17th century history. It has members who study every aspect of medieval life. We are brewers, archers, calligraphers, heralds, fencers, spinners, blacksmiths, costumers, dancers, cooks and armoured fighters. We enjoy feasting, spinning, needlepoint, equestrian, leatherwork, beadwork, socializing, live weapons competition, period music, theatre and much more. If someone did it back then, you can bet someone is trying to do it now.

The semi-legal bit

The SCA was incorporated in the Australia in 1990, but counts its years from the first tournament -- actually a medieval-theme party with no thought of starting an ongoing club -- held on May 1st, 1966.
