Mists Fall Coronet 2022 @ EcoCamp Berryessa
Sep 9 @ 2:00 pm – Sep 11 @ 2:00 pm

To the populace of the Mists, the West, and the Known World, do Princess Helga and Prince Consort Hans extend an invitation to witness the selection of Their heirs by right of arms.

The tournament will be double elimination, each round will be fought best 2 out of 3. Finals is planned to be best 3 of 5. Armor conventions will be standard West Kingdom, but helms as worn.

Early in Their reign, Their Highnesses issued a quest to the populace and to those that would wish to enter Their Coronet Tourney list – The Coronet’s Call. Those fighters wishing to enter the Fall Coronet List for the Mists are required to complete one of the listed acts of service, bardic, arts, or SCIENCE(!!).

  • 1 Hour of Service (constable/fire walks, event staff, marshall, list page, herald, etc.)
  • 1 Hour Gate Shift
  • 1 Bardic Piece Performance (official competition or non)
  • 1 Arts and Sciences Entry of Class Teaching (official competition or non)

The Prince Consort will hold a meet and greet for the youth and newcomers in the Royal Pavilion from the second round until roses open. Non-alcoholic refreshments will be provided. Please bring your newcomers to meet the Prince!

Once Their heirs are chosen, Their Highnesses would wish to celebrate with a party hosted by the Prince Consort. Refreshments will be available. In keeping with the theme of Their reign, the theme of the party will be Traders, Raiders, and (dun dun dun) Pirates! While it is not required to be dressed in line with the theme, Their Highnesses invite you to see this as an opportunity to bring some fun and whimsy to our wonderful Principality.

West Kingdom Equestrian Championship @ Ed Hughes Arena
Sep 18 @ 8:00 am – 5:00 pm

West Kingdom Equestrian Championship

Sept 18th 8am to 5pm

Ed Hughes Arena,  600 South Church Street, Ione, Ca 95640

Event Steward: Dianne Karp (Siobhan ni Seaghdha, OP) diannekarp@gmail.com  775.742.1457

Site fee:  $25 nonmember adult, $20 member adult, children under 18 free.

General Directions:  From the North, take your best route to Ione, CA  From W Main Street, turn right onto 124s/S Church St and left into the arena.      From the south, take 99 to 88E in Stockton, turn left on 124N and right into the arena.

Welcome to West Kingdom Equestrian Championship AS 57.  We have a different site this year as the archers will not be with us.  ED Hughes Arena is very large and is covered.  The event is a one-day event but there is the option to haul your horse(s) onto the site the evening before.  Please do not plan to arrive before 5pm so as to give the event steward time to arrive on site.

 Box stalls are $45. Outside pens are $27. Owner set up pens are $18.  Sleeping onsite over night is $18 for a dry camp.    If you are not bringing horses to overnight, please do not plan to camp, thank you.  All fees are payable to the City of Ione. Forms must be signed, and monies given to the Event Steward, when you arrive onsite.  Checks are preferred.

As of the writing of this copy, rentals horses have not been confirmed.  Please contact the Event Steward or look for announcements in the West Kingdom Facebook group. If you will need to be authorized to ride for this event, and there are no formal practices near you, please let the Event Steward know BEFORE the event so time to do a Games authorization can occur Sunday am.

Championship will have two parts.  Part one is a challenge course consisting of Heads, Reed Chop and Rings.  The course may be attempted at any gait or combination of gaits.  Points are earned for removing Heads and Reeds and for spearing the Rings (rings will be the standard one inch to six inches in diameter).  Ring lances must be 7 feet long and loaners are available, as are swords for the Heads and Reed chop.  The winner will be determined by dividing your point score by the amount of time it takes to complete. (Example: 50 pts divided by 30 seconds = 1.7.  100 pts divided by 120 seconds = .83).  IKEqC point values will be used.  There will be a prize for the winner..

The second part will consist of a Ride Before the Prince Element where elegance of horse and rider will be considered.  The pattern is a serpentine from Pierre de la Noue, 1620 (out of period but an easier pattern than the in-period serpentine}.   It looks like an inverted cone.  The Gallery will be looking for consistency of pace, quiet cues, elegance of seat and even loops on the turns.  Again, any gait may be used.  Extra weight will be given to the rider who canters the whole pattern but ONLY if the other parts are accomplished. A copy of the pattern will be given to everyone in the morning. The Gallery will determine the winner of this part and there will be a prize for it.

***The Champion will be determined by using a ranked order system combining both elements.

Mists Bardic 2022 @ Santa Cruz Masonic Lodge
Oct 22 all-day

As autumn is nearly upon us and my year of service draws to a close, it
brings me great joy to announce that Mists Bardic will be held at the Santa
Cruz Masonic Lodge on October 22, 2022!

Come and join us as we gather to celebrate the Bardic Arts and witness the
competition to determine the next Bard of the Mists, the best job in the
Knowne World.

The competition will be compromised of the traditional five rounds:

  • Period Piece
  • Piece in a Period Style
  • Masterwork
  • Sitting Bard’s Choice: Inclusiveness and Welcome
  • Five Words from a Hat

Please provide brief documentation for the Period Piece and the Piece in a
Period Style. In keeping with recent changes to our Society guidelines, we
welcome styles from bardic traditions from all pre-1601 cultures world-wide.
It is preferred that all pieces presented, with the exception of the Period
Piece, be the competitor's own work. Auditors are welcome.

In the interest of protecting the health of all attendees to the best of our
