For general help for newcomers to the SCA, whether for yourself or
if directing someone else, you might point them to the NEWCOMERS
section of the Florilegium. I don't believe I have much on the
SCA Inc structure and its officers, which is why I didn't answer
the original inquiry. However, there are some files on other topics
such as:
4-newcomers-msg   (28K)  2/20/01    Comments directed at SCA newcomers.
Feast-Basket-art   (7K) 10/18/00    "The Well-Tempered Feast Basket: a guide for

                                        Vascon du Navarreí.

And the most recent addition, which really should be read by many
old participants as well as newcomers:
Y-Join-th-SCA-art (10K)  2/ 5/02    "Why You Should Join SCA, Inc.?"
                                       by Meg Baron.

Meg Baron is the current Chairman of the Board of Directors of SCA Inc.
