Welcome Page

Are you new to the SCA, or new to our group? Meet the Chatelaine!
shirewurmwald@gmail.com

The Chatelaine is the person who talks to newcomers and helps them meet people who can help them learn more about the local group and specific interests they would like to pursue. For people who are new to the SCA entirely, the Chatelaine may be their first point of contact. At some time or another, just about everyone in the SCA acts as a chatelaine when we try to explain what we like about our hobby to our friends!

For the Shire of Wurm Wald, our very own friendly neighborhood Chatelaine is Clara the Twirly.

Contact The Chatelaine

If you are new to the group, you can ask her about any of the following:

* Times & locations of meetings
* General questions about SCA culture
* Who you should talk to if you want to learn more about __ (i.e., combat, arts & sciences, heraldry, etc.)
* What to do at an SCA event (or even “what is an event?”)

Wurm Wald also has a small supply of loaner gear for people who are new to the SCA. This is helpful if you want to attend an event or try your hand at combat arts before you decide to invest your own time and money into this hobby!

Our shire loaner items include:

* Garb (period clothing) in most sizes for men & women
* Loaner feast gear
* *Some* loaner fighting equipment (talk to Aleator for more specific information about what is available & in which sizes)

If you would like to learn more about borrowing any of our loaner gear, please talk to Clara the Twirly or Sofya. Anyone who wants to get started in the SCA is welcome to borrow loaner items. In exchange we just ask that all clothing and feast dishes be washed before they are returned.
