From the Kingdom Chatelaine:
New to the SCA or Atlantia, join us for Their Royal Majesties Court during 12th night! We will explain the goings-on, the awards, and the traditions taking place. We look forward to meeting you! This Saturday, January 15, the room opens at 11:30 am for Noon Court!
Greetings unto the Kingdom of Atlantia from Duchess Simone,
After consultation with their Majesties Eckehard and Jane, we have determined that it is necessary for the safety of our populace to extend the suspension on events and activities in Atlantia. We still have concerns regarding the rate of Covid infections in our states and the District. We are going to continue the pause of all in-person official activities and events until Friday February 4, 2022.
Please wait to hear from the event steward for Manannan Mac Lir before canceling your reservations, as I hope they will be able to reschedule for a later date.
We shall see this dark time behind us, so please continue to be kind and patient with each other. Tonight, I ask you to raise a glass to their Majesties and our Atlantia.
Vivat Atlantia Vivat!
Duchess Simone
Seneschal, Kingdom of Atlantia

Their Majesties are currently conducting a polling of confidence regarding a new term for our Baron and Baroness. All paid members in our zip codes should have received an email or a postcard with instructions. If not, you can feel free to email Their Majesties with your thoughts at trm@atlantia.sca.org . The polling closes on Friday, Dec 3rd.
The Kingdom of Atlantia has adopted a new Covid-19 policy that can be read here. The short version is that at in-person activities we’ll be requiring proof of vaccination or a negative test within the previous 72 hours. Follow the above link for more details.
With that in mind, we’re still having archery and fencing practices in person and an occasional outdoor A&S activity. Please join our Facebook groups for current details.
With Covid going back and forth, we’re continuing our outdoor archery and fencing practices, but staying virtual for A&S and business meetings. We’re hoping to be able to see more people in person soon.
We’re slowly starting back up. We’ve restarted archery and rapier practices.
Our first post-covid event will be June 26. It will be a small local event where we will virtually watch some of the Coronation activities as well as having some local fun. Pre-registration is required. Link to more information is on the right.
We’re slowly emerging from our Covid-19 hibernation. Archery practice has resumed. Fencing practice will start again on May 16. Both are following Atlantia’s Covid Requirements.
Atlantia’s next University event will be June 12, entirely online with 134 different classes over 7 hours. Check out the catalog and register for classes at https://university.atlantia.sca.org/.
Our May business meeting is at 6:30pm on May 20 on our Discord channel.
We’re continuing our weekly A&S and monthly business meetings online as well as teaching and taking lots of classes at various online university settings. As the Covid situation improves we will gradually start having in person, outdoor, practices and eventually fully reopen. Follow us on Facebook for the latest updates and track the Kingdom status and policy here.
The national Board of Directors extended the in-person event closure due to Covid until at least May 31, 2021: https://www.sca.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/2020-12-04-Resolution-Continuation-Letter.pdf
Our virtual meetings continue for our weekly A&S classes and monthly business meetings. As conditions permit we may start small local practices following local government instructions and Kingdom policy.
Atlantia’s Kingdom Seneschal has released guidelines and procedures for reopening and having in-person activities again. Our first resumed activity is target archery. This will include maintaining social distance, the wearing of masks, answering a health questionnaire and signing a contact tracing sheet.
