Archers of the Debatable Lands! We’ve got some fun events coming up in the next few weeks. Here’s the schedule coming up:

Oct. 23rd – Mounted Archery Clinic – An introductory clinic for our archers to learn how to shoot from horesback! For more details, check the event page here.
***Regular archery practice for this week is canceled.***

Oct. 30th – Halloween Shoot! – Everyone is encouraged to wear your costumes and make and bring your own spooky targets. We’ll shoot at novelty ranges and come up with fun competitions for candy prizes!

Nov. 6th – Normal practice resumes!

Nov. 13th – Baronial Harvest Revel Social Meeting
***Regular archery practice for this week is canceled.***

Nov. 20th – Another regular practice. (Weather depending)

As always, if you need loaner gear or you have any questions you can reach out to me at archerymarshal@debatablelands.org

Today’s archery practice is canceled.

It looks like the rain wins this week. I’ll be spending the day repairing the loaner equipment and making new targets instead. Hopefully we’ll be back out there next week.

Stay dry out there!

Hello archers!

Archery practice is still happening today at the Washington Blvd practice site from 11am to 2pm. We’ll have to keep an eye on the weather and we may have to pack up early if the rain gets any lightning mixed in, but other than that it should be another fun day of shooting!

See you out there!

Ronan

Hello Debatable Lands!

With the current weather, lightning in the forecast, and a soggy practice site, I’ve decided to cancel archery practice for today. Enjoy the extended post-Pennsic rest. We’ll be back at it next week.

Stay dry!
Ronan

Hello all!

Pittsburgh weather sometimes makes fools of us all. Tonight’s mid-week archery practice has been canceled. But never fear! We will be back to try again tomorrow!

Join us at the Washington Blvd practice site tomorrow June 23rd from 5:30-8:30pm for an evening of archery practice.

Hope to see you there!

Tomorrow, June 22nd from 5:30pm to 8:30pm (or whenever the sun goes down these days) Lord Godzimir the Golden will be holding another weekday evening archery practice at the Washington Boulevard site. Let’s take advantage of these long summer nights while we can!

Happy solstice and happy shooting!

Greetings archers of the Debatable Lands!

I am officially putting out a call for marshals-in-training for target archery in our Barony! Some of you have already reached out to me and some of you have already begun training, but I would like to get a definitive headcount of all who are interested in becoming marshals. The duties of an archery marshal include:

• Inspecting participants’ equipment
• Assisting in the setup and teardown of the range
• Assisting the marshal-in-charge with calling the line
• Ensuring all rules and safety standards are upheld
• Submitting a quarterly report to the Kingdom Archery Marshal

The Marshal’s Handbook can be found on the Kingdom Earl Marshal page at marshal.aethelmearc.org. In the headings at the top of the page, the society wide handbook is under Society Rules and the Kingdom handbook is under Policies. All marshals and MITs must know both rulesets.

If you would like to be an archery marshal then please send me a message either via facebook, or via email at archerymarshal at debatablelands dot org.

*Note: You must be a member of the SCA with an active membership in order to be a marshal.

Thank you all for your interest in volunteering! See you on the range!

In service,
Ronan O Conaill
Captain of Archers, Debatable Lands

Archers of the Debatable Lands!

This Wednesday, June 1st from 5pm to 8pm we will be holding another weekday evening archery practice at the Washington Boulevard site. This continuation of our occasional weekday evening practice sessions will once again be led by Lord Godzimir the Golden. So come out and join everyone to enjoy an evening of archery!

Happy shooting!

Archers of the Debatable Lands!

This Tuesday, May 24th from 5pm to 8pm we will be holding a weekday evening archery practice at the Washington Boulevard site! To make up for missing practice today we will be holding a practice that evening led by Lord Godfrey de Bayeaux. So come out and join us to enjoy an evening of archery!

Hope to see you there!

Greetings Debatable Lands!

Given that some of our equipment and a number of our marshals are at War Practice right now, I will not be holding practice tomorrow at Washington Blvd. I hope everyone in attendance at War Practice is having a blast!

On that note, congratulations to our own Lady Gredechin Mörin de Nordenberg for winning the distance shoot on Friday, and congratulations to the new Kingdom Archery Champion, Baron Snorri!

Vivat!
Ronan O Conaill
