The path of any martial skill like any other is always an ever changing\, ever adapting\, and ever growing experience we all share. From the more scholarly pursuits of Arts and Science\, to the Archer and Thrower\, to the Rapier and Heavy. As we enter the new year with fresh resolve we should begin now to look towards our biggest event of the year Pennsic. We should hone those skills that we have worked so hard to achieve that make Æthelmearc a known and intimidating force to contend with on all fields of battle. \nAs such\, we here in The Shire of Sterlynge Vayle have begun our prep work. And to that end on the 21st of this month at our local fight practice\, from 2pm to 6pm\, we will be hosting the first Muster of the year. This is not just a Heavy Muster\, this is a MUSTER. So regardless of your calling bring your gear\, enjoy our hospitality and for a couple hours work on your fighting\, fencing\, arts and science. We have class rooms available for the folks working on projects so they\, like those of us in the martial specialties\, can hone their skills\, get input or give advice to others. \nFighters and Fencers. Bring your gear\, let’s make the most of the time we have been afforded to work on this. \nNext Month another Muster will be announced by another Regional Commander. And so forth and so on\, and in the interim we should not let our weapons fall to disrepair. Whether it be our minds\, or our blades. \nTo quote a passage from a book\, “A Mind needs Books like a Sword needs a Whetstone.” \nA FB event will be made and posted soon\, but for now\, from 2pm to 6pm at: \nWest Windsor Baptist Church\, 166 N Rd\, Windsor\, NY 13865 \nI hope to see as many of you as can possibly make it\, let’s not waste these opportunities. \nDue to our sites policies in place\, we are not allowed to take a knee in the gymnasium due to our armor possibly marring and marking the floor. However\, if the weather is fair and warm enough for us we have a large field to work with outside as well. \nSemper Servus\,\nSyr Gwydeon ap Arden\nRegion 5 Co-Commander URL:https://aethelmearc.org/event/region5-fight-rapier-practice-january/ LOCATION:West Windsor Baptist Church\, 166 North Road\, Windsor\, NY\, 13865\, United States CATEGORIES:R5,TRH Royal Progress GEO:42.1064191;-75.7560909 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=West Windsor Baptist Church 166 North Road Windsor NY 13865 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=166 North Road:geo:-75.7560909,42.1064191 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240210T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240210T200000 DTSTAMP:20260417T054305 CREATED:20231011T182556Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240129T141520Z UID:10000478-1707555600-1707595200@aethelmearc.org SUMMARY:FSDS: Lupercalia DESCRIPTION:Royal Progress: \n \nAdditional notes on Wheelchair Accessibility: The site has a ramp into the building.

Find comfort and camaraderie at the Inn where there is food\, music\, games\, campfires\, and of course good friends. \nArchery:\nCome and enjoy more archery than you can shake a stick at. On average we have about a dozen different ranges to help keep you occupied and happy. On Friday evening we have a flight shoot and night shoot. During the day Saturday we have many novelty ranges and a few roving ranges so make sure to wear your walking shoes and bring plenty of arrows.\nIn addition to all the spectacular and creative ranges and shoots\, the Scarlet Guard has issued a challenge to all Shires\, Baronies\, and Cantons to send their best archer who is not a member of the Scarlet Guard to compete. To enter an individual must have a signed letter of entry issued by their group’s seneschal declaring you as their representative in the competition. They also ask the competitor to add a small item or token to the prize basket for the winner. In addition to the prize\, the victor will walk away with the annual competition banner to display throughout the year. Each year the winner’s and group’s name will be added to the banner to create a legacy of great archery and ultimate bragging rights (members of the Scarlet Guard are not allowed to enter). If you have any questions regarding the challenge please e-mail the archery coordinator Juan Miguel Cezar at scarletguard_clerk@aethelmearc.org. \nThe site is wet.

Edward the Confessor\, The King of England since 1042\, has just died. AND HE HAS NO HEIR. Duke William of Normandy has sworn that Edward promised the crown to him\, as Edward had spent most of his childhood in Normandy in exile from Cnut\, the Viking king who defeated his father and married his mother. However\, in Edward’s last moments\, he gave his blessing to the Witan (English councilmen to the king\, literally “wise men”) to select Harold Godwinson\, Earl of Wessex\, as the new King of England. \nMeanwhile\, Tostig Godwinson\, deposed Earl of Northumbria and brother of Harold\, has sworn revenge on his brother for being the one who deposed him for levying high taxes on his people. Tostig traveled to Norway and struck an alliance with King Harald Hardrada\, whom he convinced to invade England to once again rule as a Viking king and restore Tostig as the Earl of Northumbria. \nThis would set in motion events that would change our world forever. England would have a new society unlike which it has never seen before. The Viking Era in England\, which began in 793 C.E. at a raid of the Lindisfarne Abbey\, would come to an abrupt and bloody end. Englishmen who were once considered freemen would find themselves subjugated to their new Norman overlords. The language you are currently reading would not look the way that it does if 1066 ended differently. \nAt this year’s St. Swithin’s Bog Three Day Event\, we will celebrate this monumental year with Heavy Weapons\, Rapier\, Youth Fighting\, Thrown Weapons and Archery\, many of which will have a Saxon/Viking/Norman flavor! The heavy weapon fighting will use the three major battles in that year (The Battle of Fulford\, the Battle of Stamford Bridge\, and the Battle of Hastings) as inspiration for the scenarios. The Battle of Stamford Bridge (famous for the lone Viking who defended a bridge against dozens of Saxons) will be our feature tournament\, where the bravest of warriors will have their chance to see how long they can last on the bridge against the other fighters! Fighters are encouraged but not required to use Conquest-era weapons and armor. The archery field will include special targets with a Norman and Saxon theme. \nThe feast will be made with mostly period materials\, but will be sure not to disappoint our modern palettes! The hall will be adorned with images of The Bayeux Tapestry\, a Norman work of art that depicts the invasion and defeat of Harold from William’s perspective. Historical poster boards will be displayed in the hall as well\, to provide basic information on what life was like in England in 1066. The theme for the Iron Scribe will follow the event theme\, so better brush up on your early medieval history! Brewers will be encouraged to brew typical libations of the era\, including mead and ale. \nLOCATION:\nOur site is the New Germany Grove Hall\, 1635 New Germany Road\, Summerhill\, PA 15958. Site will open on Friday\, July 12th at 5:00pm and close Sunday\, July 14th at 12:00pm. There is space for camping.
