Site tokens and Wrist bands
As June Faire is both an event and a public demo, safety is a key concern! Please wear your site token at all times unless it would be a danger, such as on the war field.
Youth are required to wear wrist bands. They are colored based on SCA participant vs modern spectator and, as we can write on them, allow us to locate parents or guardians when one turns up lost.
Companion animals will also be issued a wristband which will have the Owner’s name, number, and encampment. Every one fondly remembers the cries of HOLD on the An Tir/West war field as a companion zipped across the middle.
June Faire is HOST to the Kitsap Medieval Faire demo, share with all your Modern friends and Family!
Got pics?
Pets

FIRE: Currently allowed braziers or other stands, at least 18″ off the ground with either a 5 gallon bucket of water or fire extinguisher handy. Fires must be monitored at all times, this includes tiki torches. Currently there is no restriction on standard fuel types (wood, charcoal, propane, etc). NO FIREWORKS ARE ALLOWED.

Saturday WAR!
Heavy armor inspection immediately following court or 9:30 AM.
Scenarios will begin at 10:00 AM. Each scenario will be about a 20-30 minutes duration:
FLAG BATTLE | Two mighty armies exchange blows on the battlefield as they fight for control of three keeps!
RULES: There will be three “keeps” with a flag in each. The two armies are on either side of the three keeps. Engagements will last a timed 5 minutes for each of 4 engagements. At the lay on, the two armies fight for control of the flag in each keep. All fighting must occur within the keep. The keep can only be entered by the specified “door way.” At the end of each five-minute engagement, the team controlling the flag within the keep will be awarded 1 point per flag controlled. The winning army will be the highest point total at the end of the four engagements. No resurrections. No missile combatants. No siege weapons.
BALLISTA MAYHEM | Warriors wade through murky marshlands as they move forward to wipe out the powerful siege engines that pose them threat.
RULES: The purpose of this scenario is to capture the opponents’ Ballista. There will be a land area to cross between an impassable marsh, upon which the opposing Ballista crews will be firing. Combat archers will also be utilized. 20 minutes scenario. 2 resurrections for all combatants except Ballista crews.
KILL THE COMMANDER | Rivals stare across the watery terrain, commanding their armies to battle with honor and purpose. Who will be sent running and who will stand victorious?
RULES: The two armies oppose each other across a field that is marked with “lakes” and land. Fighting may take place only on the land. Anyone in the water is drowned. Commanders must remain on their side of the battlefield but have free movement and as many guards as they deem necessary. The scenario ends with the death of the opposing commander. Ballistas will be active and can be “destroyed” by killing the crew. No combat archery. This is a single resurrection, 20-minute engagement.
INVASION | Archers, Ships, and Warriors come together in one epic battle of defense and invasion!
RULES: One army is on land and defending its Keep. The other army is approaching by ships and will launch an amphibious attack. The shore area the invaders must traverse will be designated as an initial wading-only (on your knees) followed by an area that can only be crossed at a walk…no hurrying or running. Ships will start at far end of War field and approach the shore. Both sides will have archers. Defenders can shoot at the ships, at the invaders as they crawl through the deep water and walk through the shallow. Once on shore, however, invaders can no longer be shot at by defenders due to crowd safety concerns. Invader’s archers will be on a single “ship” and cannot come ashore. They can however, engage the defenders throughout the scenario. Scenario winner is as follows: At the end of 20 minutes, if the defenders are still defending their Keep, they win. If at any time the invaders capture the keep, they win. If that happens with enough time to run the scenario a second time, sides will switch.
Saturday Rapier Scenarios!
RAPIER COMBAT!
Princess Buttercup has been kidnapped! Take up your sword and save the princess by being victorious in four scenarios full of Fencing, Fighting, and True Love.
___________________________________
***Armor Inspection, warm-ups, and pick-ups – 9:30 am
___________________________________
***Scenario One –
I am not left handed – 10 am
Single sword only. A hit to your sword-arm is considered a kill. Both fighters begin with their sword in their weaker hand. If you are killed, a hold is called and you switch to your stronger hand and regain all lost limbs. If you are killed a second time, you lose the bout.
Rounds and pairings will be decided based on number of attendees.
___________________________________
***Scenario Two –
The Three Terrors of the Fire Swamp – 11:30 am
After escaping the Fire Swamp with Wesley and being confronted by Humperdink. Buttercup announces that she dropped her crown in the Fire Swamp! Wesley and Humperdink race into the fire swamp at the same time to get it. They must avoid the flame spurts and quicksand, grab the crown, and exit the fire swamp before the ROUSs appear and tear them limb from limb, while using their swords to prevent their opponent from doing the same.
___________________________________
***Scenario Three –
Showdown in the Thieves Forest – 1 pm
Inigo has rounded up a band of thieves to help him retrieve his wine skin, which lies at the center of the forest. The brute squad is trying to prevent the wine from falling into the thieves’ hands, so that they’ll sober up and stop making trouble. Incorporate silly props. Put five-person teams together ahead of time, or just show up and we’ll help put teams together. This scenario will use a modified version of the Blood of Heroes rapier scenario rules:
-Each team consists of a thief (dagger only), two duelists (sword and dagger), and two brutes (sword and defensive secondary, or single sword)
-Each point in the game starts with the opposing thieves facing off inside a circle in the middle of the field with the wine skin on the ground between them. The thieves should be at least 6 feet apart. When the ‘lay on’ is called, the opposing teams engage each other. The circle, however, cannot be crossed until it has been declared ‘broken’ by the Marshals.
-The circle is broken only if the wine skin leaves it
Only the thief may touch the wine skin
There is a basket at either end of the field and goal is to place the wine skin into the basket on the far side of the field.
If you are killed, go down and slowly count to “five-one thousand”, then rise and get back into the fight
While down, you may be pinned and prevented from getting up: a member of the other team places his sword tip on your body and maintains eye contact, repeating at intervals “you are pinned”. (You can continue counting to five while pinned).
Limbs are lost as usual. You may suicide and count to five to lost regain limbs.
-No death from behind.
-A round lasts three minutes, or until a point is scored, whichever is sooner. There will be active marshaling.
The number of points that each pairing plays to, and the matchups will be determined by number of participants. The winning team gets a bottle of wine to share!
___________________________________
***Scenario Four –
Have Fun Storming the Castle (aka Gate Battle) 2:30 pm
Our heroes, with help from the thieves, must fight their way through the guards at the castle gate. Defenders have three lives while attackers have unlimited lives. Whichever team defends for the longest time wins.
___________________________________
***Scenario Five – The Final Duel 3 pm
The four fighters with the most points at the end of scenario four will take part in a single elimination bracket, which each paring fighting best of 3 passes.
-Basic Rules
RBGs will not be allowed in any scenario
Case of rapiers as a weapon combo will not be allowed in any scenario
Remember that June Faire is a demo, so fight and die honorably and with panache
Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line
-How is score kept?
Whenever you or your team wins a bout, you get one point. Report it to the List Mistress.
The victor of each scenario, as well as the overall victor, is determined by the number of points you have at the end of the scenario / end of the day. There is a small prize for the winner of each scenario and a larger prize for the overall winner.
