SCA @ UVa

With spring and Eastern Daylight Time comes our switch back to the Dells for practice.

We'll be there from now on, until late fall and the return of Standard Time, weather permitting. When rain is very likely, or has been falling heavily, we'll still meet back at the Stadium.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tonight starting at 5:30. Lots of room and almost 70°!

Longtime SCAdians know and love Leslie Fish's iconic SCA war song, Serious Steel. Now newer members can sing along to the song as posted on YouTube.
