Activities
There is something SCA-related happening on almost every
night of the week. Following is a sample of the activities that
are available. Unless otherwise indicated, all of the following activities are free and open
to the public.
Archery Practice
Archery practice is every Wednesday at 7:30 pm at Town Hall Archery in Belleville. Directions Take I-64 east into Illinois to I-255 south to Hwy 15 east to the Frank Scott Pkwy West exit. As you approach the exit you will see Town Hall Archery on your right. At the top of the exit ramp turn left, go down just a few yards to the first road on the right and follow it back towards Hwy 15 till you get to Town Hall at its end. Loaner archery equipment and lessons are available (from me, not Town Hall). Town Hall charges 6 $ per hour, 6 $ minimum, for the use of their range.

Site Dinner
When: FIRST Thursday in every month, dinner starts being served around 7pm and is open until at least 9pm, assuming we don't run out of food.
What: This is a dinner we hold the first Thursday of every month at the weekly Baronial meeting. It raises money to help pay for our meeting site, and has proven to be an anticipated social evening as well. Every month a different set of volunteers supplies a delicious home-cooked meal. We sell those meals for donations of $5 (or less as suits your budget. We're flexible.) We're also willing to just sell a dessert or a side dish if that's all you want.
Please note: dinner is served in the kitchen attached to the gym in the Olivette Community Center. DO NOT ENTER the kitchen THROUGH THE GYM while the gymnastics class is using the gymnasium! The entrance to the kitchen from the outside opens at 6pm and is the only entrance until the gym doors open for serving dinner at 7pm.
Note: Kajsa is always looking for volunteer cooks, servers, and cleaner-uppers. Cooks generally donate their food. Each month we need an Entree cook to provide the main dish, and then others to bring side dishes, bread, and dessert.
Contact: Slaine ni Chiarain, with either questions or to volunteer. 314-918-1062
Location: Baronial Meeting Site, in the Olivette Community Center Gymnasium/Kitchen
