This is not a ‘garbed’ event, in other words we wear normal clothing. This is an opportunity to meet and work on projects or skills. Bring along your latest project and work in the comfort of a large space (with air-conditioning/heating as the climate requires) with lots of chatting and fun! Bring your armour and weapons to work on or use in training! Come to the meeting and help shape the direction of the Shire! BYO snacks and refreshments.
- Shire Meeting: This is our monthly Shire Meeting where reports are provided by officers and decisions are made on what the Shire does. Officers who cannot attend are requested to send a report with their apologies to the Seneschal.
- Crafthall: A common term in some parts of the SCA for a non-garbed day for doing things. This could be arts and crafts related, combat or training related, or anything else that is about developing the skills and interests we express through the SCA. Starts at 2:00 pm and generally concludes no later than 5pm
- Fighter Training: Interested in SCA combat? Come along and you might find someone to talk it through with; have a chance to work on your armour and weapons; or even train. For details on martial availability you can contact the group marshal.

This is a ‘garbed’ event, meaning an attempt that looks like pre-1600 clothing at 10 metres by candlelight. We have clothing you can borrow if necessary. Activities each month vary but may include:
- Heavy Tournament (or training);
- Rapier Tournament (or training);
- Target archery;
- Games, both indoor & outdoor;
- Arts and Sciences;
- Music & singing;
- Dancing; and
- eating.
The feast is usually a potluck, so please consider bringing something to share. Please be aware we have our own fridge, and access to a microwave and medium sized commercial stove.
