Arts and Sciences
Fashion
The Iron Ring has maintained an interest in the fashion of the 16th century, often appearing in groups with fine court garb. Our tailors Iuliana de la Sara, Lissette de la Rose and Helena Zancani continue to advance their skill and try new and different projects.
Woodworking
In the past, the Iron Ring has used hand-crafted wooden benches. The current plans involve producing several wood tables and new wood chairs to improve the look and feel of our camp.
Martial Pursuits
The Iron Ring promotes activity in martial prowess, in support of its mission to present the look and feel of a historical mercenary unit.
Heavy Fighting
Members of the Iron Ring participate in SCA heavy combat. The Captain of our heavy war unit is Stavis Vladimir Kraskov. His agenda is to get as many Iron Ring members into armor as possible, and to practice regularly and with a variety of opponents. The Iron Ring currently practices at the Dragon's Mist Fight Practice and the Three Mountains Fight Practice, and works with other war groups to schedule and attend war practices as time permits.
Rapier Combat
We are proud to support Mara inghean Eoghain on the rapier field and also see our commander don the mask occasionally as well.
Combat Archery
The Iron Ring possesses several crossbows and bows and may, at any time, decide to bring the pain to a war near you.
Target Archery
A number of members of the Iron Ring enjoy target archery. This activity has no particular rank or station associated with it, and is not being performed more than recreationally by some members who own or have access to bows.
Camping
The Iron Ring makes camp at a number of events every year. Some of the features of the camp are a growing number of period pavilions, historically-inspired seating and camp elements.
Our 25 foot, blue common area, affectionately called "Big blue" has died and is being replaced. RIP Big Blue.
