Upon consideration of recent rain and flooding, fencing, armored, and thrown weapons will all remain inside at Ace Axe Throwing this Sunday. Start time: 2pm.

Due to the weather and the likelihood that the park will remain sodden, we will keep armored practice indoors for another week. The other marshal activities will make their calls day of.

SO, armored practice 4/7 is still at Ace Axe Throwing at 11 am.

Greetings, good populace!

Starting this Sunday, April 7th, weekly Sunday martial practices will shift to our summertime schedule and location!

11am: Archery and Thrown Weapons
1pm: Fencing
2pm: Armored Combat

Location: Highland Park Northeast Parking Area at the corner of Washington Blvd and Allegheny River Blvd.

Ace Axe Throwing will remain available to us through April in case of bad weather. We will post updates in the blog, email list, and Facebook announcements group the Thursday prior if weather looks bad for a Sunday practice.

One last note for the fencers: Dorothea will run fencing practice this Sunday, as I’ll be unavailable. Please contact me before midday Friday if you intend to come and need loaner gear.

Yours In Service,

Robert MacEwin of Thornhill
Debatable Lands Fencing Marshal

Apologies for the late notice. We will not be holding armored fighting practice tomorrow, on Easter Sunday. The fencers still intend to hold practice.The following week we will be resuming practice at the Washington Blvd Park, weather permitting.

Hi all,

I just took over as Seneschal for our Debatable Lands last month. Why? Yeah, I’ve been asked that, including by myself! Seriously, it’s because I love our barony. And it’s been clear since I joined the SCA 19 years ago that we run on service. If I want us to stay this awesome, it’s my turn. And it’s something I can do.

But I can’t do anything without all of you. Please, I want to hear from you, about what’s great and about what’s not great. Yes it’s a platitude, but we are what we make ourselves as a group. If you want to be more involved, but aren’t sure where to start, we can talk. There are so many many things happening and plenty of opportunities for service, community, and fun.

Here’s one area for participation that isn’t talked about much. Our business meetings happen every other month, on the first wednesday. The next one is this week, April 3rd. The details of the zoom room will be shared that day on Storfrettr, our web blog. Who can participate? Anyone. If you have new business to bring up please talk to me ahead of time. Who can vote? Usually everyone, although there are a few things, per policy, that will be specified as officer only votes.

I am also looking for deputy seneschals. If you are interested in helping keep things running, please talk to me.

So, in summary- please talk to me! And if it takes several times before I remember your name, I’m a bit face blind and bad with names- it really isn’t about you.

Salve Acolens! Hello neighbor!

Hi Brewers,

Since its been quiet; I’d like to propose you meet me at the Cobblehaus Brewery in Coraopolis so that we can make some plans, and get some things scheduled and on the books.

I will be going over at 6:30 pm to get us a table in the back rooms; that way we can hang out, try some great things, and make good detailed plans.

They do not sell food but they will have a food truck outside tomorrow and they are extremely open to having carry in or delivery to their site. Tomorrow they have scheduled Sahar’s Food Lab Food Truck. I was not able to find a menu and they appear to cook whatever they feel and whatever is fresh.

On Sunday, March 10th, martial practices will be cancelled due to the site being unavailable. We will return to our regularly scheduled practices on March 17th.
