A note to both the newcomers and Pennsic veterans alike, to those who are members of the SCA or who are just venturing into the Known World for the duration of War: Please remember to be considerate of the

accepted practices and rules of the SCA while you enjoy yourself this Pennsic. Let those of us who enjoy the Middle and Near Eastern arts within the context of these events strive to educate others. Let us make

choices that will continue to contribute to the magical atmosphere that really only exists here. This is how we will continue to grow, earn respect and share our joy for what we do with others.
