I think I know what you are getting at…

 

Households are not recognized by the SCA as official entities.  If you household wants to hold a “non-SCA” event then it is not covered by the policies, or insurance, of the SCA. 

Do what you want at your own risk. 

For a function to be an official (formal or informal) SCA function it must be sponsored & published by a recognized SCA group.

Households/Clans are not recognized SCA groups.

Greetings:   I saw this phrase:   This restriction forbids rattan practice or fighting by minors at any SCA event, including informal group sponsored gatherings and practices [emphesis added]   Please define:  informal group sponsored   Thanks   Thorgard     --- On Thu, 10/30/08, Carole Goranson <JennaMacPherson@ msn.com> wrote: From: Carole Goranson <JennaMacPherson@ msn.com> Subject: [AEyouthpolicy] Minor rattan combat policy meeting To: AEyouthpolicy@ yahoogroups. com, AEYouthCombat@ yahoogroups. com, announcements@ aethelmearc. org Date: Thursday, October 30, 2008, 1:45 PM Greetings All,   There has been a lot of conversation lately, at events and online, about the idea of allowing youths age 16-17 to begin learning standard adult rattan combat. This is an option available at Pennsic and in many kingdoms throughout the Known World. The first organizational/ informational meeting in Æthelmearc for this purpose is scheduled for the Stormsport Gold Chain event on November 9, 2008. Several other meetings are being planned for future events. All are encouraged to attend.   That having been said, I want to mention that currently in Æthelmearc, nobody under the age of 18 is allowed to participate in rattan combat or training at any SCA sponsored function. This restriction forbids rattan practice or fighting by minors at any SCA event, including informal group sponsored gatherings and practices, even with direct parental supervision.   I look forward to some lively discussion and the chance to build a new level of our current program and increase participation for families in Æthelmearc. and I do remain...       In Service to Æthelmearc Jenna MacPherson Kingdom Youth Combat Marshal     Carole Goranson (THL Jenna MacPherson of Lion's Tower) Amherst, NY (Barony of the Rhydderich Hael, Æthelmearc)   "The problems of the world can't be solved in meters." - Arlo Guthrie       ------------ --------- --------- ------   Yahoo!
