    From the King and Queen

    Unto the Mighty Kingdom of Avacal,

    We are honoured and humbled to have been selected to serve as your new King and Queen. We want to express our heartfelt thanks to our predecessors, Their Graces Duke Kvigr and Duchess Svava, for their hard work and dedication to the Kingdom during their reign. We hope to continue building on the foundations they have laid and serve the Kingdom to the best of our abilities. We would also like to thank all those who have stepped forward with offers of service or words of encouragement. Avacal is blessed to have such a talented and enthusiastic populace! We understand the responsibilities that come with the Crown and are committed to upholding the ideals of chivalry, honour, and service that are the hallmarks of the SCA. We look forward to working with all of you to make Avacal an even better place, where all members can find their place and contribute to the game we love. We hope that you will join us in celebrating the rich history and traditions of our game, as well as the wonderful community of people who make it all possible.

    Thank you for your support, and we look forward to serving as your King and Queen.

    Yours in service,

    King Gunther and Queen Eyoddi
    Avacal

  • Greetings from Their Royal Majesties

    Greetings from Their Royal Majesties

    Our final missive is one of gratitude.

    We find ourselves lacking the words to convey the gratitude we feel for this opportunity to be the Crowns of Avacal.  We enjoyed the opportunity to travel this Kingdom as your Sovereigns. Getting to see the populace and give recognition to Our talented Avacalians is a joy. We would not have been able to do this without the help and support of so many. To say thank you is not enough. But it does need to be said. Thank you to our retinue, to the Kingdom officers for keeping things running smoothly, to the makers that donated largesse and gifts, and to the people of Avacal for your support. We are honored to have been your King and Queen. We wish Their Royal Highnesses the best in their upcoming reign.

    In service to Avacal and the Dream, now and always. 

    Kvigr and Svava King and Queen of Avacal

  • Membership Renewal Portal Temporarily Down

    Membership Renewal Portal Temporarily Down

    It has been brought to our attention that with the website down some people can not renew their memberships on the SCA Website portal. We have spoken to the society senechal about a possible allowance for people to not have their memberships for crown as long as they get them as soon as the website is back up and running. This will NOT be allowed, because there is another option. One most of us have not used in some time but it still exists. You can renew and/or get a new membership by E-mail. With Crown only 3 weeks away there is still time to use this option, so we encourage everyone that needs to, to use the email option as soon as possible. I would hate to see anyone that wanted to be competing in Crown be sitting on the sidelines.

    Kvigr & Svava
    King and Queen
    Avacal

    You can fill it out and email it to: membership@sca.org
