Greetings and welcome to all Newcomers from The Honorable Lady Svana Mjobeina, Chatelaine for the Shire of Vulpine Reach.

 

-- New: Take a look at the "SCAdians", a short documentary about the SCA, primarily focused on armored combat, featuring Vulpine Reach members and events. --

 

As the "Chatelaine" (pronounced "shat-eh-layne"), my job is to help you get started playing in the Society for Creative Anachronism. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I can direct you to resources for getting started in the Society such as getting your first garb together, help you get connected with individuals in your area(s) of interest, and give you insight on how the SCA works, like "how is it different from a ren faire".  And for the record, there is no such thing as a stupid question.

My modern name is Bonnie Dodson.
I can be reached at: (423) 314-4511 or at chatelaine@vulpinereach.org.

As you get started with the Shire of Vulpine Reach, there are two easy steps you can take to get you connected to the group and its activities! First, we invite you to fill out our easy online Newcomer's Information Form to help us get to know you better. Second, join our online discussion group so you can read and post messages throughout the shire. You'll find information about my deputies and links to other resources below.

Welcome to the Shire!
