From the Baron & Baroness

Right trusty and well-beloved gentles, we greet you well and hope that the Yuletide season finds you in good health and cheer. As this year draws to a close, we would like to express our appreciation of those who have made it so enjoyable for us and for the populace as a whole. It is thanks to Event Stewards and their teams of assistants that we have had such a splendid progression of events this year, and we thank them particularly for their efforts. Thanks must also be given to all those who have attended events and provided us with the pleasure of their company, and in this spirit we encourage all members of our dear populace to come along and enjoy the revelries that the coming year brings. Amongst these will be the Midwinter Coronation - yes, it shall be in Aneala! Congratulations to Mistress Rhianwen and all those who helped to assemble the bid for this event, which will undoubtedly prove to be a magnificent spectacle. There is much to be done in preparation for this Royal occasion, and any assistance shall be greatly appreciated by the stewarding team. Please contact Mistress Rhianwen to put your talents at her disposal! Lastly, we warmly congratulate our Cousins in Bosenberg on the registration of their Shire's name. In closing, we wish you all a joyous and relaxing Christmas season, and we look forward to your company again in what promises to be a very busy but extremely rewarding year ahead.

We remain

Yours in service,

Lachlahn Jane

Baron Baroness

From the XIIth Night Steward

To all and singular greetings from the Autocrat of An Italian Carnivale, our 12th Night celebrations

Be it known and please pass on this information that you are required to book with a $10 deposit to come to this event. Due to the late timing of bookings and the non-attendance of those booked the following will be imposed: Bookings without deposit are not bookings and are only expressions of interest . If I do not have enough bookings by the end of December to validate this event it will be cancelled . Please note that if you book and do not attend your deposit is forfeit to cover expenditure outplayed on your behalf. Yours in service to Crown and Kingdom Muirghein

From the Seneschal

The 5th of December is International Volunteers Day, and as Aneala’s Seneschal, I would like to say thank you to all those fine members of the populace who continually put in the hard yards to make Aneala great. Aneala means Brightly Shining and it is the motto of our group; it’s those who hold offices, run events and act as support crew that make things happen that epitomize that brightly shining part of our game. I am continually humbled by the sheer amount of work and love put into this group. I thank you all.

Some more good news; we have the privilege of hosting the July Investiture of the King and Queen of Lochac. What a great amount of fun this will be; the game as it is meant to be, full of pomp and ceremony, high feasts and spectacular tournaments. It’s a weekend away with all the catering provided. Talk to Viscountess Rhianwen or Baroness Catherine to contribute to the event.

Think about writing to Their Majesties about those who you see doing good work. Please copy the Baron and Baroness so they can support your nomination. I very rarely say what they should get, just what people are doing. Also with Midsummer approaching you might like to write to the peerage councils if you think someone deserves a peerage. A copy to the King and Queen with this letter is always a good idea.

On a closing note, I am stepping down from this office as soon as we get word from the Kingdom Seneschal as to which of the candidates will replace me. This will probably be at Midsummer. I know you will all give my successor all your support. Keep up the good work.

I remain yours in Service of the Dream

The Honourable Sir Kane Greymane Viscount, Knight & Pelican Seneschal of Aneala

Officers Needed

The Barony is always looking for people who are willing to contribute some of their time and energy to the service of all. CHATELAINE The Chatelaine plays in an important role in looking after newcomers to the group. LISTS OFFICER The lists Officer is responsible for recording the results of tournament combat in the Barony. In many ways the Lists Officer is a historian for the group. REEVE I would like to hand on the office of Baronial Reeve for MidSummer's feast, and to that end will be looking for a replacement to take on these duties. Reeve is not a hard office if you know how to read a bank statement and use a calculator. If you are interested please email Baroness Catherine de Arc (contact details in Regnum) to discuss the duties of the office in further detail.

Senora Catalina de Gata, Reeve DEPUTY CONSTABLE The Office of Constable is responsible for signing-in people at events, and for collecting site fees. The Constable also collects property lost at events. Please note that this position is advertised with the idea that, once comfortable and well-versed in the office, the Deputy would assume the full Baronial Constable’s position.

Mistress Rhianwen ni Dhiarmada, Constable MARSHALL The Marshall is responsible for the supervision and safety of all combat that occurs at events within the Barony. If you are interest in any of these offices, please contact the Seneschal at [email protected], or on 9314 2506.

From the SCA Australia Committee

Greetings and Salutations gentle cousins from Sir Kane Greymane in my capacity as a Director of the SCA Australia Limited, the OZIBOD. Over the last year or so the committee has been struggling with a number of issues, the core of which is bringing the mundane structure of SCA Australia into the 21st century. We have for some time tried to run the SCA Australia as if it did not have any real function in the game we play. This idea has long been in the minds of the populace and is an artefact from when we first incorporated in South Australia. Today's world of Not-for-Profit organisations is a mile away from this belief. The SCA Australia Ltd has to be able to defend the SCA if it gets sued. At the moment any legal defence would almost certainly bankrupt the corporation and close down the SCA in Australia. The SCA Inc in the USA is currently being sued over a child molestation issue, so we need to consider possible fallout from this and plan for it. We need to restructure our membership costs to build in a financial buffer for any such occurrence, whether it’s an issue similar to that affecting the SCA Inc or something else. This means that memberships need to rise from $45 to $50. Associate membership will stay at $30. College members will be able to claim a discount on their membership to the value of the university SCA club fee. All memberships will come with E-Pegasus but if you want a hard copy posted out this will be extra to your membership type. It is estimated that we need between $50k and $70k to fight a legal Battle. At the moment we have $10k. These changes and other initiatives being considered should bring in about $5k to $7K per year. While not enough in the short term, at least we will be working towards the amount we need. The Board has also looked at the way memberships are processed and to stream line this process we have moved all memberships to a 1st of May - 31st of April time period, these days chosen as they tie in with the SCA year. This means that anyone with a current membership expiring in 2007 will need to buy a 6 month membership once to take it to the 1st of May 2008. Those with a 2008 expiry before May will have their membership extended till the 1st of May. From the 1st of May 2008 new members joining before 1 November will pay a full year membership while those joining after 1 November will buy a 6 month membership. Multiple year memberships will also be offered for up to 5 years. Membership cards will be altered to show a valid to date. Changes to membership for combat related activities - It is a mundane inevitability that we as a group will need to tighten our membership requirements for armoured combatants and rapier combatants, archers, and siege weapons operators. The SCA is currently the only weapons group that does not require membership for weapons related activities. As a recent incidence in Victoria has shown, mundane authorities will not recognise fighter authorisation cards as proof of membership for the purposes of exemption to the weapons legislation. Therefore for the protection of our members who carry restricted weapons in states where legislation restricts SCA weapons (in particular Victoria, and Queensland for crossbows, and for those members travelling to these states to participate in combat related activities) the minimum membership that will be recognised by authorities for weapons exemption will be associated membership. This change is to come into effect for those fighters affected as of the 1st May 2008. Unauthorised trainees will not require membership, only signed Indemnities, unless they carry restricted weapons outside of fighter practices. As a national organisation we need nationally consistent policies. Therefore a minimum membership requirement for all authorised armoured combatants and rapier combatants, archers, and siege weapons operators must be brought into existence Australia- wide as part of our mundane legal obligations. Accordingly we propose that, at the next annual membership renewal date in 2009, a national policy of minimum membership requirement for this group be brought into force. The full new membership structure follows on the next page and a chart of the new membership structure is also attached.

The SCA Australia board recognises that the new membership structure and requirements will cause strain for some members. But these changes are essential if we are to move the SCA from an amateur group into a national semi-professional body akin to all other national interest groups and therefore able to protect the future of our mundane organisation; contribute to relevant policy development and be able to take advantage of opportunities to draw on any Federal or State funding initiatives. Although this structure and pricing have been accepted by the Board of Directors, we would like to hear from you if you have any concerns about the changes. Please write to the Board of the SCA Australia Ltd at [email protected] I can also be contacted by e-mail; [email protected] or by phone (08) 9314 2506 (after hours). I remain a servant of the Dream Sir Kane Greymane Viscount Knight & Pelican On behalf of the Board of Directors, SCA Ltd

Baronial A&S Competitions

An Italian Carnivale (Jan 2008) Open Arts and Sciences Steward’s prize for Best pre-1600 Mask

These are the A&S competitions currently on the calendar. I particularly wish to draw your attention to the competitions for Lochac Midwinter next year, which will be held in Aneala. This is a great opportunity to get your work seen without risking it in transit and you have plenty of time to prepare.

An Opportunity! Are you looking for something more in the SCA? Are you interested in creating things? Have you considered becoming an Arts and Sciences Minister? The Arts and Sciences office is not especially difficult or demanding. You will be closely involved with everyone who is working on arts and sciences projects (almost everyone in the SCA at some point in time) and with Baronial A&S projects. You get your name in The Vine, and a shiny (almost) new officer’s medallion. If you become Aneala’s new A&S Minister you will be expected to: Be a member Report to the Lochac A&S Minister, the Anealan Seneschal and the Baron and Baroness every three months. This is quite simple and pro-forma reports are available. Arrange A&S competitions throughout the year. Attend council regularly so you know what is going on and what events you might need to organise A&S activities at. Keep an eye on the various regular A&S activities that are already happening so that you can report on them. In addition, you may wish to run workshops, regular classes, or a weekend of classes on a specific topic or a vast array of topics; you might want to put together an A&S newsletter or add to the articles on the Anealan website; or you might have other new and interesting ideas for encouraging the arts and sciences in Aneala. If you think you might have an interest in this office please ask me about it or speak to the Seneschal or the Baron and Baroness. You can also check out the A&S Minister’s Page on the Lochac website for more information about the office.!

AN ITALIAN CARNIVALE

Come join in the Masked street fair, and enjoy dancing, games and general frivolity incognito. (Did I mentions MASKS?) Attendance at a carnivale called for ALL to wear masks so that rank and identity could be hidden from all (just think of the mischief you can get up to wearing a MASK). Noble folk especially hid their identity so they could relax and enjoy themselves.

The event opens at 5pm, continuing until 10pm, when we must all scatter afore the Guard takes our revels to the cells.

Pavilions will be set up; however, you will need to bring your own seating, and, as always, something to eat off and drink out of. Hmm … in summer, liquid to drink is also good.

If you wish to raise your personal pavilion or banner you can either be on site from 3:30pm to raise it yourself, or give it Mistress Muirghein (north of the river) or Lady Sorcha (south of the river) BEFORE the day. If you choose to raise your pavilion yourself be aware that the stewarding team will tell you where you can put it.

Note that NO pavilions or banners may be raised after 4:45pm

Also note that we will not have access to the hall proper until 5pm.
