My own SCA page...

The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is an international organization dedicated to researching and recreating pre-17th-century European history.

Hello and well met. My name is Ethodius.

I am from the Shire of Altenberg which is in the Middle Kingdom.
I have a strong interest in the arts and sciences. I also like to travel and indulge in festive social gatherings. At times you may find me with a bow and arrow practicing some archery.

- The date in light blue is the date at which the info was posted. The exact dates and times of the events are to be found further in the text.

Most of the posts are from my subscription to the Shire of Altenberg mailing list. I try to post as many of them on here that I can, but it is very difficult for me to post them all. For more info. on local events, you may also read a listing of events in the Middle Kingdom.

The Shire of Altenberg meets to discuss events and business at The Mount Clemens public library. The library is located at 150 Cass Ave between Gratiot & Groesbeck.

Meetings take place on the 4th Monday of every month. Meetings start at 7:30 pm. People start to gather and meet around 7 pm. The meetings are in a room downstairs from the main library floor. Enter the library from the side of the larger parking lot area and to your left you will find the doors for the lower level of the library. Once you go down the stairs, turn right down the hallway. Once you get to the end of the hallway, turn to the left and enter the large room. The Meetings are held in this large room with a table in the center for everyone to sit at.
