member wrote down what they’re currently proficient with in the SCA and what
they’re interested in learning. Members who held a Grant of Arms or greater were
asked to list several arts/skills that they’d be willing to teach interested
members. They were then arranged in a half circle and numerous speed dating
rounds (about 3 minutes each) ensued, allowing the prospective teachers and
students to talk with each other and learn about their interests and promote a
Love of Learning. </p>
