Welcome to the shire of Mountain Edge
We are a small branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism located in the central region of the Kingdom of An Tir (Pacific Northwest US and part of western Canada), within the Principality of the Summits. Our Shire lands encompass Yamhill County, Oregon, including the cities of Newberg, Dundee, McMinnville, and Sheridan. We host two fun and friendly events each year – Mountain Edge Defenders Tourney in the spring and Acorn War in early fall.
The Shire also has monthly Council (business) meetings and several types of SCA martial arts practices – the current schedule and directions are on the Events page.
All are welcome at Mountain Edge activities!

HL Asny Brunsdottir is passing the Seneschal baton onto Vicounti Eduardo Lucrezia
First of all, I’d like to say thank-you to all shire members and officers who have taken their time to attend monthly meetings, write reports, coordinate and volunteer at events, as well as invite others in to play with us. I am proud to say since I started as Seneschal, I have brought in over 10 new people to either play and be a member and/or take a role in an officer position. Also, I as Seneschal, have made new connections with several people outside our shire and am thankful for new found friendships.
Lastly, looking back at the last 2 years, I introduced or encouraged social gatherings both art & science, archery, and sharing food and drink at local pubs. I want to encourage us all to think how we can take the next step to be active, either in a main or deputy officer position and/or coordinating an event. If I was to share one morsel of knowledge it is to work in partners or groups. If you need help or have an interest in something, please ask Their Excellency Eduardo or me, HL Asny Brunsdottir.
