Come celebrate the Coronation of Their Highnesses Matthew des Arden and Mistress Fiamuin Kareman. 
There will be a day board between morning and afternoon courts. 

We are fortunate to be allowed to use the beautiful Masonic Community Center in Manchester, NH, just a mile from the SCA familiar site of A Marketplace at Birka.

A display of the Scrolls of the East is being coordinated by Aurelia Colleoni a'Buccaforno.  If you would like to participate and bring in a FRAMED (for protection) scroll to put on display, please email Aurelia at 234742@members.eastkingdom.org, to place your name on the list so we know how much space we will need.  And if you would like to volunteer to scroll sit during the day to help keep our treasures safe, please use the link below to sign up for a shift.

There will be 2 vigil / elevations occurring at this event, a Pelican for Arlyana van Wyck and a Laurel for Nathan Hartman

The site itself is dry, but there are many wonderful restaurants where you may go after the event and celebrate the day with friends.

PLEASE NOTE The FOOD and DRINK restrictions have been loosened for us!  There will still be NO FOOD or DRINK, allowed in the scribal display room on the 3rd floor.  However, there will be exceptions made for the vigil food on the 3rd floor in the hallway outside the vigil rooms.  There WILL be water allowed in the hall where court will be held, but in CLOSED WATER BOTTLES only so please plan ahead.  There is plenty of room on the basement floor feast hall to leave feast gear, food and drink and on the first floor lobby to eat and drink.  Closed drinking containers are preferred everywhere and required in the court hall.

Please keep an eye out for clear and frequent signage that will clarify what is allowed where.

Parking:
The Mason's hall has an arrangement with the bank just to the south of their building.  Because of construction they have asked that we start filling the lot from the East (by the old drive-through) and fill towards the bank entrance in the west(to leave passing for their clients until they close at noon).  If this lot is full there should be ample street parking around the building on a Saturday.  Please do not park in the back of the building, this is reserved for staff and must be kept clear for emergency vehicles.

Accessibility notes:
There is a mechanical lift inside the BACK door of the event building that will bring you to the first floor if you are unable to walk stairs.  From the first floor, all floors are accessible via a beautiful and well maintained and staffed 1930s original Otis elevator. 

If you are able to walk the stairs, we encourage you to do so, as the elevator takes its time and could be a point of back-up when many gentles are trying to get to the same place at the same time.  But if you need, it, by all means, please do use it.
