The Barony of Seagirt's annual event to test prospective Sergeants, Yeomen and Gallants

First trials held in 1999 at South Vancouver Island Ranger Station (autocrat James Llewellyn ap Gruffydd). Tried in August a few times opposite Lions Gates Sgts. Thereafter moved to July and held at Camp Barnard. Now held on last FULL weekend in July.

SEAGIRTS HEART

In every group you meet
There are those that you will find.
That exemplify the strengths
Of body soul and mind.
There are those that are the brains
And those that are the brawn.
Some who hold the history
Of where we’ve been and gone.
But now I’ll tell a tale,
Of those at Seagirts heart.
A tale of Seagirts sargentry
And whence it all did start.
So when you list the sergeants
You’d better get them right
Cause if you mix them up,
It’s them you’ll have to fight.
Ekatarina Borisovna
Was first to bend a knee
To swear her oath to Seagirt
And start our sargentry.
The next our proud lord Robbins
Allan be first his name.
Showed all just what he’s made of
And to our sargentry he came.
Lord Nikalai Toronovich
Had skills for all he showed.
That proved to all that saw him
To a sergeants rank he’s flown.
Next came master James
With helmet in his hand.
Who begged the lady Lions Gate
To free him to our land.
Lord Seth Starr came striding.
He worked hard to earn his fate,
To stand for Lady Seagirt
This oath he’d gladly take.
A lady of great strength
Was sixth to bend a knee
And join the rank of sergeant
The Lady Myrranda Di mici
Owen Hallehyne
A griffin standing proud.
He swears his oath of sargentry
And it’s Seagirt to whom he’s bound.
The Honorable Lord Duncan MacQuarrie
Showed skill and wisdom both
And earned his title soundly
And proudly swore his oath.
Know this to all that heed me.
Of these we all have pride.
We know how hard it is they’ve worked
To show what they’ve inside.
To those that I have listed.
You’ve set yourselves apart.
Your skill and wisdom guides us
To what you have in heart.
As sargentry you’ll show us.
To what we should aspire,
And by leading us who follow.
We know you’ll bring us higher.
And to those who now would try
To gain our sargentry.
I hope you now have glimpsed.
Just how good you need to be.
It’s not for every warrior
To earn this title proud.
Cause not just any one
Can teach a rabble crowd
Not just any man
Can show the skill at arms,
And still have all the gentle arts
To show his Witt and charms.
Yet if you think you have it
That which set these gents apart
The Seagirt trials await you
IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE HEART.
