Her
Excellency, HL Kara Bjornsdottir, invites the populace to join her
and the Sergeants of Wealdsmere at this year’s Sergeantry
Trials.

This year we
have two candidates who shall be tested to determine if they
are worthy of the rank of Sergeant of Wealdsmere.
 Candidate’s merit in skill at Arms, combat tactics, SCA
armor and combat standards, heraldry, courtesy, medieval
entertainments, history and expression of noble virtues will be
tested throughout the day.

Members of the
Populace are welcome to participate in the weekend’s events,
including feasting, testing, dancing, games, bardic, and
Court.

Past and
current members of the Sergeantry are encouraged to dig out their
Sergeantry trials A and S displays and present them to the A and S
