Event Laws and Policies

Disability Issues

Recomendations for Event Stewards, Public Services and Equipment Listings, etc.

The 150 Mile Rule

Events shall not be held within 150 miles of each other on the same weekend. Exceptions will be granted on a case-by-case basis, usually because one or both of the events are specific in nature and unlikely to draw attendees from the other event.

The Second Weekend of the Month Restriction

The Northshield Crown reserves the second full weekend in any month for their use. These will be the weekends used for Coronations, Crowns, Kingdom A&S, etc. Groups are encouraged to petition the Kingdom Seneschal for use of Royal weekends where no Kingdom event is scheduled. The exceptions are WW which is traditionally held on the second weekend in July and SUN which is held the second weekend in November. These events have an automatic exemption in perpetuity, remaining in effect as long as the event runs and uses the second weekend. Spring Coronations will be held the first or second full weekend in April, depending on where holidays fall. Spring Crown Tournaments will be held the second full weekend in May. Fall Coronations are on the second full weekend in September, and Fall Crown Tournaments will be on the second full weekend in October.

Please consult the Kingdom Event Bid Packet for Crown and Coronation bid requirements.

I-300: The portion restricting the use of terms that suggest official sponsorship

Language which suggests Kingdom sponsorship or sanction of an event, guild, household, or other organization (such as use of the terms “Kingdom”, “Northshield”, “Royal”, etc.) is the prerogative of the Crown after consultation with the Stallari Council. Permission to use such language will continue until specifically withdrawn.

III-400: Events cannot be scheduled opposite Crown Tournament or Coronation.

The Kingdom Event Information Officer will not allow any official SCA event within Northshield on the same day as Coronation or Crown Tournament unless the Crown has given express permission after consultation with the Stallari Council.
