Province Business Meeting.
1st Thursday of the Month

Its a place to meet people, to find out what's going on in the Province, to share ideas, and to volunteer! Drop by and find out what's new and upcoming, make a new friend, and make your voice heard!Contact the Seneschal, Kevin Muske, for directions and more information.
In-School and other Educational Demos.
Dates and times vary.
Demos evoke the heart and soul of the educational mission of the SCA. To schoolchildren, we are not modern people dressed up in funny clothes - instead, we truly are the people we pretend to be - people from another time and place, come forward in time to tell the truth about our lives. You don't have to be an expert to participate in these demos - you just need to be reasonably comfortable standing or speaking in front of large groups, enthusiastic, and willing to share what you know.To find out how you can contribute, contact the Chatelaine, Jamie Driggers.
