Marble "Throne" from the Baths of Caracalla, c. 200 BCE

Just as Gulf Wars was to start, the Board of Directors was compelled to shut down all official SCA activities due to the looming threat of the Covid-19 Corona Virus Pandemic.

Events affected:

  • Gulf Wars 2020
  • Spring RUSH
  • Lilies War Work Day
  • Spring Crown Tourney
  • all local meetings and practices

Coping Mechanisms

Virtual Gulf Wars posts on the Kingdom of Calontir Facebook group - songs, stories, battles as we imagine they might have been

Arts & Sciences

RUSH

RUSH would like to announce that for the duration of event closures due to the current epidemic, we will be offering RUSH credit for online classes that meet the following criteria.

  • Classes must be at least an hour long.
  • Classes must be taught by a SCA person.
  • Classes must be SCA related per normal RUSH criteria.

If you teach or take a class, please send the following to RUSH@calontir.org

  • Instructor’s name (mundane & SCA)
  • Student’s name (mundane & SCA)
  • Name of class and/or class description
  • Length of class (time)

We would love to encourage the wearing of garb as one would to event classes, but we understand that during this trying time, that may not always be feasible so we are waving that requirement during this temporary offering.

If you have any questions, please contact us and we will try to get to everybody as soon as we can. And please, above all, take care of yourselves and stay healthy.

In service, Quiteria la Roja
(incoming RUSH Chancellor)
