Alexis encountered the SCA in Riverfront Park, in the mundane town of Grants Pass, Oregon. Within a few weeks she rode stuffed in the back of a Volkswagon Bug (that needed to be pushed to get it to start), in the middle of the night, driving with 2 others, to her first event. Much to her surprise (and because of her number of years past the age of 18) she found she had become the Seneschal of the then incipient 'Shire of Myrtle Holt'!

The year was 1983 - or was it 1984? Luckily the Crown approved the gifts and paperwork that was submitted, and so the SCA became a curious aspect of life occasionally encountered by the people of Grants Pass. "Are you in a play?" was a question actually asked at more than one location.... and more than one time in the years ahead.
