Rencester’s Tornement Dæg Williamsburg Virginina April 13, 2002

Felicitations and salutations to the good gentles of Atlantia from the 
students of the College of Rencester! In the fine tradition of competing for 
grades, the College will be holding a tournament event to celebrate the 
impending close of classes. As we have a reputation for being a well-rounded 
school, the day’s events will include a wide variety of contests, 
encompassing wit and knowledge as well as the fighting arts. So come and 
join us for a day of merriment and mayhem- no final exams, we promise.

Contests: The day’s events will include marshall tournaments, poetry and 
trivia contests, and an arts and sciences competition. Gentles in attendance 
at the event are encouraged to enter as many or as few of these contests as 
they desire. Prizes will be given to the winners of each contest. At the 
close of these competitions, a Champion will be chosen for Rencester. To be 
eligible for Champion, one must enter three of the five contests. Marshall 
Tourneys will be held in both rapier and heavy weapons. Arts & Sciences is 
an open competition to be judged by the populace. Anything may be entered, 
but we encourage submissions which incorporate Rencester’s colors of blue, 
white, and gold. SCA Trivia suggestions for the trivia contest would be 
greatly appreciated, and can be sent to Erin Epperson eheppe at wm.edu .

Children’s Activities: As to not leave out the children of Atlantia (ages 
twelve and under) there is also a competition for the title of Children 
Champion of Rencester. There will be competitions of courtesy, heraldry, and 
physical activities. To be declared the champion one must participate in two 
out of the contests.
