Samhain Post-mortem

Montengarde Samhain (Nov 6-8 2020) class: Construction of an Iron Age Finnish dress

A while ago I posted about working on the classes and whatnot for the November 6-8, 2020 Montengarde Samhain event. I don’t know that I’ll end up working on another similar online event anytime soon…. but I thought I’d record som

e of my thoughts about working on the event.

This is another one of those “probably only of interest to me” kind of posts.. and I do geek out a bit with statistics and analytics cus that’s my jam…

Results of the Apprentice’s Tournament

Prizes for the belted competitor

At Samhain, I co-autocrated the event and also ran an Apprentice’s Tournament. There were three suggested categories if anyone wanted to be inspired:

• Anything Irish
• Anything from the 7th century
• Recent work

Apprentices Tournament at Samhain

I’m helping to host Samhain on November 5, 2016 in Montengarde (Calgary) – an SCA event where we’ll have a Bardic championship… and I’m hosting an Apprentices Tournament.

Like the Squires and Cadets’ tournaments we’re accustomed to, this competition will be open to all Apprentices, but also to anyone who wishes to be ‘Apprentice for a day’, and is sponsored by a Laurel.

 

Project categories include:

• Anything from the 7th Century
• Anything Irish
• Recent work (any time period, any culture)
