[Elfsea] Medieval Scotland is coming...

[Ceatta o Gulcleth]

For the longest time, Medieval Scotland was our premiere demo, and we have
gotten several wonderful members out of our showing there.  There were times
in ages past when this demo required the same dedication that Defender or
even SpringFaire demanded of us. We showed the local populace (mundanes,
that is) what life could be like and we touched the hearts of a number of
people (I'm sure).

But we do not do this as a member-raising demo (to the chagrin of many),
because (as a number of people who have been around will testify) there is
something heart-warming to see the light come on in a person's eyes when you
tell them about the life and times of our ancestors (not just European).
Why, we've even had Scottish Belly Dancers at this hoedown!

As an FYI, here is a comment I got from the Coordinator of the Highland
Games:
"We have invited a group called 'Viking Invasion' to participate this year,
but we really want the SCA to participate as well.  You are a very colorful
addition to the event and we have enjoyed our cooperative efforts over the
years."

It would be nice to live up to that expectation.

And, as a reminder, they are being held at Maverick Stadium (at the corner
of Davis and Mitchell in Arlington) from June 5 - 7, 2009.
