About the Shire – Phoenix Glade is a Shire within the re-enactment group the Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA) which is an international organization dedicated to recreating the historical life and combat of pre-17th-century Europe. Our Shire is just a small part of the 30,000 member world wide group known as the SCA. We are located within the Kingdom of Meridies (see below for Kingdom details).
Join Phoenix Glade for Meridies 30Yr and Daggers and Hemlock II! Details here!
The SCA is a group designed for individual participation and is not a spectator sport. It allows members to be as active or inactive as they wish, but unlike Renaissance Fairs you take part in the activities.
“Members, dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, attend events which may feature tournaments, arts exhibits, classes, workshops, dancing, feasts, and more. Our "royalty" hold courts at which they recognize and honor members for their contributions to the group.”
If you would like more information about the SCA you can go to www.sca.org. You can also join the Shire Web Forum if you wish to contact all members of the shire.
The Shire of Phoenix Glade welcomes all newcomers, and we encourage interested gentles to check us out. All meetings are open to the public, and we like seeing new faces.
If you are new to the SCA, and would like more information on the Society or our Shire, please feel free to contact our Chatelaine (New comer welcoming person)
