Being the online web log for the Southwestern Pennsylvania branch of the SCA, Inc.
What’s an event as marvelous as Agincourt without A&S represented! I’ll be your humble hostess for the displays this year, and invite all to read the announcement below. A&S will have its own tent, just off of the main pavilion.
Any questions? Please feel free to reach out.

Greetings Noble Populace,
It is time for policy review. We have made some updates that were necessary to meet with The Society and Kingdom policies. We have suggested adding a few new things to make our Barony more inclusive and removed gendered language.
Please take the time to review these proposed changes. We will vote on them at the Business Meeting in December.
If you have questions, concerns, commentary please email seneschal@debatabelands.org so that the officers can review your commentary and answer questions.
In Service,
Muirgheal, Seneschal Debatable

Hi all from Niall!
Because of the special gathering in remembrance of Ronan O’Conaill, and our need to use the temporary archery practice location for (hopefully) only one more week, we will once again not be having Sunday archery practice this week. We will have another mid-week practice on Wednesday, October 11th, at the North Park range from 4:30 pm until 7:00 pm.
The following Sunday, October 15th, we will resume regular practices at the Washington Blvd. location, at 11:00 am.
Also, stay tuned for news about the next Sky List Stellar Tournament.
Yours in service, Niall mac Raedwulf.
Hello everyone. As you may know, I will be stepping down as Baronial Signet along with Baron Brandubh and Baroness Hilda. Our wonderful Nextellencies, Prima and Violets, will be in need of a new Signet.
The Baronial Signet is a Deputy of the Baronage, and is in charge of making sure that scrolls happen for the various Baronial Awards that are awarded at Baronial events. This includes: finding willing illuminators, Calligraphers and wordsmiths to commit to the various award scrolls; collecting said scrolls either ahead of time or at events; assisting their Excellencies during court prep, providing a store of scroll cases for the Barony to be given out with each scroll at court, and encouraging and fostering the Scribes of the Barony by hosting the official Scriptorium either virtually or in person.
Please send a letter of interest to Their Nextellencies Prima and Violeta at baronage@debatablelands.org by Sunday October 15 2023.
I will be available to help the new Signet transition successfully. I will also be continuing in my position as Region 2 Deputy Signet, so I’ll still be involved in scribally goodness.
Thank you everyone for a wonderful 7+ years as Baronial Signet.
In service,
THL Rachel Dalicieux
BMDL Signet
Region 2 Deputy Signet

As a reminder, practice will be at a different site this coming Sunday. We will hold practice at the same site as the memorial gathering for Ronan, the Museum Building on Brownsville Rd, South Park Township, PA 15129). [40.303562381306065, -79.99719372940017]

The range is located at 852-872 Old Ingomar Rd, Allison Park, PA 15101 – this is near Moon Pavilion in North Park, if you wish to use that as a landmark for your GPS.
