Important SCA Announcements

Membership - Effective January 1, 2009
The next time you will out a membership form, you will find a new additional field. We are beginning to collect birth year information for those members who wish to participate. Filling in this information is optional; we are using it only to gather general demographic data of our participants. We are doing this to be better able to serve the membership and gain an understanding of the trends in membership. The SCA does NOT and will not sell our members names or information to any other organization. We respect our members' privacy and keep all information received confidential.

Known World Handbook
For decades the Known World Handbook (KWH) has been a must-have resource for any newcomer to the SCA. The last update to this quintessential publication occurred over 14 years ago. Over the next year or so, the SCA will be revamping this critical handbook from the ground up. The goal is to release a new KWH for sale through the SCA's online Stock Clerk by the first quarter of 2010. We are looking for anything and everything a newcomer to the SCA could be interested in. If you have an idea for an article, send it on in. There is no limit to new and fresh ideas. Visit here for a list of sample topics. Try to keep the articles between 800 and 3000 words, and please submit them via Word files or in the body copy of an email. Authors of existing articles in the KWH are invited to refresh, renew,and update their prior KWH articles. If you send in any article, artwork or photograph, please fill out the KWH release form.
