Competitors will also need to show a current SCA membership card and missile combat authorization card. Those who wish to vie for the position of Kingdom Protector should review the requirements of the position in Kingdom Law.

Equestrian
Having grown up in the equestrian community, I have always looked forward to and enjoyed the equestrian portion of the sca events here in An Tir.
Unfortunately, we were informed that there will be no equestrian activities, with the exception of The Riderless Horse Ceremony, at the new location for September Crown. We wanted to alert the equestrian community to this so that they do not incur any additional charges, or stress, to both their pocketbooks and their horses.
I do look forward to enjoying their performances and activities at future events.
