SCA History
Elsebeth's SCA history is rather varied. Her first event was in the Barony of Castle Rouge in the 1990's; from there she moved to An Tir and was part of a great group in Lionsdale (Abbotsford / Chilliwack area), which just outside of the Barony of Lion's Gate. Her time was spent mostly enjoying the atmosphere. She has been able to meet some great people.
Elesbeth took a break from the SCA for about 15 years, before starting up again in Skraeling Althing. She havs made lunches; organized merchants; learned new skills and crafts; and learned some history from the knowledgeable people around me. Overall a great experience.
