Hail and well met!
I'm Morien, Captain of The White Company, an SCA fighting household with groups in the MD/VA and Ohio Valley areas. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Sir Edward, Sir Brian, and Sir James yesterday at Short Point.  We do a wide variety of training, tourneys, wars, deeds of arms, and charity actions (mostly for food banks) through the year.  From what I can see, our crew has a lot in common with your Order, and we'd love to participate in some of your events, and invite you to share in ours.  We have SCA-legal weapons of ALL sorts to equip you with, no worries there!  Out support team also plies us with fluids and snacks, and tries to lure us into the shade.  Please feel free to like our group on Facebook at:  https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-White-Company/179821808754262?ref=hl

Greetings Morien!

My SCA Mercenary Company Nevermore will be at Lilies War this summer as well.  We fight under the Raven banner and camp near the old fort site.  I would look forward to meeting you.  :)

Greetings!

I am new to SCA but any events I go to (my first one just happened this weekend I went to Ymir) I hang out with Sir Rodrigo Falcone and his Elephant houshold :)

I am known in the SCA currently by the name Jorge de la Costa. Hope to see you at War of the Wings down here in NC!

Wish I could, but even Estrella & Antir/West War is out of the budget right now.
Fall down seven, get up eight.

Might be able to make a Sept WV one, depending on what the location in WV is. My Mar-June are pretty solid already. You guys have a busy schedule!
