A Little Information About US

(Note: This page contains links that connect to sites over which neither the SCA or WeldLake has any control.)

This is a website in perpetual development.  Weldlake is a Canton of the Barony of North Woods in the region of Pentamere of the Kingdom of Midrealm of the Society of Creative Anachronism better known as the SCA. (The Canton of Weldlake territory encompasses Livingston County in the state of Michigan, USA.) It is of Incipient level.

The SCA is a non-profit educational organization devoted the the study of pre-seventeenth century Western culture. It concentrates on the European Middle Ages and Renaissance, and members work to recreate the arts and skills of this era. Some members study the Middle East and explore the interaction between Europe and Asia during the period under study. The SCA was incorporated in 1968, but recognizes a tournament held in Berkeley, California on May 1, 1966 as its founding date.

An "anachronism" is something that is out of its proper time frame. "Creative Anachronism" takes the best qualities of the Middle Ages and selectively re-creates them in the modern world. Geographically, the SCA covers the globe, with the majority of its members living in the United States or Canada.

In addition to our own events, which include tournaments, feasts, and class sessions on period subjects, we also perform educational demonstrations. For more information on these activities you may visit the Canton Calendar or contact us through the Canton officers' emails. For an online demo of the SCA, click here. For further information on our group, contact our newcomer contact person, our Chatelaine, Lady Aliyah bat Assriel at chatelaine@weldlake.org. For more on the SCA in general and the Midrealm in particular, see our Kingdom Chatelaine page at http://www.midrealm.org/chatelaine/.
