Students at Jacksonville, Florida's Southside Middle School were treated to a day of chivalry when members of the local SCA group visited the school for its annual celebration of "Knights Day." Sandy Strickland of My Southside Sun has the story.
The Varangian Guard have long been settled on the western shores of India.
Wanting to participate in the events surrounding these competitions they
sent out a call through the routes, through all the lands clear back to
Scandinavia and bid to host the Tourney of the Rose, in a far and exotic
place.
Come feast with us on exotic foods and enjoy exotic
aromas as we bring you to the distant land of India.

We've opened up our home to the friends we know and to the friends we've yet to meet.
The theme for this revel is "Back to Basics" which means that we are extending a special invitation to people who are new to the SCA to come and learn this organization from the ground up. But we can't do it all alone! So we are also inviting everyone else to come and help show the new comers what you have learned. We'd like to have people come and teach classes in anything you'd like, but keep it geared toward the new comers. And that's just during the day!! Night time is when we get to cut loose and party late into the night!

Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter, the wolf packs howl hungrily throughout the land. A lone rider comes with a missive from the fairest kingdom Trimaris far to the south where alas the sun still shines. The Most Noble Company of the Azure Rose shall host a grand and glorious tournament of lance and sword near the borderlands to honor the Ladies of the Rose of the Knowne World.
Beautiful and Noble Ladies of greatest virtue will award rich prizes and largesse. Chivalric Knights and brave Squires shall take to the field to hone their skills of war bringing with them their fierce Archers.
