by the Germanic Tribes. It is traditionally a celebration of the
Winter Solstice. This is a time of celebrating the end of the long,
dark and cold night and the beginning of longer days, the coming of
the sun. In the 13th
century chieftains in Iceland held large feasts at Yule that lasted
several days and included dancing, games, sports, and other
entertainment.

A&S competition:
For most of our time periods,
the dark of the year was a time to tell stories around the fire.
This competition is keeping in spirit with that time. This is a two
part challenge. Part 1.
Create a doll of an actual person within the SCA. You must create
the entire doll as well as its clothing and any accessories.
Part 2. You must write out a
story about that doll/person. It can be a true story, a war story,
a made up story… entertain us for goodness sakes!!

You can compete in this
contest on your own or with friends. The dolls and stories will be
set up in display and winner will be by populace vote. Entertain
us!!

Entertainment provided by the Bards of Key
Point, along with some of our own Aquaterians.
