Welcome to the shire of Mountain Edge
We are a small branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism located in the central region of the Kingdom of An Tir (Pacific Northwest US and part of western Canada), within the Principality of the Summits. Our Shire lands encompass Yamhill County, Oregon, including the cities of Newberg, Dundee, McMinnville, and Sheridan. We host two fun and friendly events each year – Mountain Edge Defenders Tourney in the spring and Acorn War in early fall.
The Shire also has monthly Council (business) meetings and several types of SCA martial arts practices – the current schedule and directions are on the Events page.
All are welcome at Mountain Edge activities!

Congratulations to our new Defenders
Mountain Edge had a successful Defenders tournament this last April 20th. We had 75 people in attendance and two tournaments for people to participate in. The Heavy Tournament had 19 fighters participating and the Rapier tournament had 9 fighters. The weather was perfect for the tournaments and the displays of skill and chivalry were a wonder to behold.
Introducing our new Defenders
Heavy Defender
Baron Peder Georg Jensen
Rapier Defender
Viscount Sir William Geoffrey the Rogue
There was much more than fighting for those that attended the event. There was a Arts & Science displays including classes on felting, using a spinning wheel, scribal illumination and a cooking demo.
To close the event, Court was held by Prince Finn and Prince Eduardo. Many thanks were given to the attendants. Our new Defenders, Baron Peder and Viscount William Geoffrey were invested, and some members of our little shire were called up and given awards.
In Addition, Her Ladyship Layla of Mountain Edge received a Silver Barberry and His Lordship Paul of Beckenham received a Grail of the Summits for martial skill.
