Introduction

Kiersten first began playing SCA in 1984 in the Western Barony of Califia, but it was not until arriving in the Shire of Bergental in 1989 that she was able to thoroughly enter into SCAdian life. She credits Sarah Langtoft for introducing her to all the lovely folk who attended Yule Feast in 1990 and the 1st Baronial Investiture in 1991, which inspired her to organize the students of the western MA "five-college area" as the College of the Sinking Lands. The College served as a willing pool of student labor and talent for Barony events, even after she graduated in 1993! The College has since folded. An early member of the Baronial Choir, she loves singing in almost any capacity. She was and remains committed to service to young families, providing children's activities at Baronial events for a handful of years until starting her own family. She lives with her husband and their three towering sons in the northern edge of the Barony, and very much wishes her life had more space for her SCAdian pursuits! She received her AoA 9/30/1995, and is honored to be part of the Baronial Orders of the Hourglass and Fountain (now the Cup of St. Brigid).

Kiersten is mka Meguey Baker.

Not sure where teaching classes at Nova Schola should be, so I'm putting it here, because there were hand-outs :)

In Case of Court

Please let me or other folks who can make sure I'm there know ahead of time! I missed hearing my own AoA read in court at Pensic because I was providing childcare so other nobles in our Barony could attend. They felt badly about it, and it put the King and Queen of the East in an spot I'd like to avoid! It does make for a more unique scroll, which is signed by the royal pair but was actually handed to me after they had left the thrones.
