Greetings, All!
It has been an incredible couple of months! We have gotten to
enjoy your company at Wiesenfeuer Yule, Coronation, Queens,
and Winterkingdom. All have been amazing events where we
have gotten to recognize members of the wonderful populace of
Vindheim!
The coming month promises to be busy, but fun as well. We will
be attending Mooneschadowe Provincal Games, Winter War
Manuevers in Calontir, and the regional rapier practice.
War prep is in full swing! Check your authorizations, check your
armor and weapons, check your garb, and make repairs. March
will be here before we know it!
We are steadily getting award recommendations from the
populace and want to say THANK YOU for sending them in. We
love being able to recognize our populace members and that
isn’t possible without your sending in recommendations. Keep
them coming!
In closing, we appreciate all of your hard work and support and
we look forward to seeing everyone at upcoming events.
Micauley and Caterina
Prince and Princess of Vindheim

Greetings, All!
Wow time flies when you are having fun! This past month was
awesome! We enjoyed spending time with you at Provincal Games,
Winter War Maneuvers, and the Vindheim rapier practice this past
month. We got to see great acts of heroism and fighting at all three
events and got to recognize many deserving members of the
populace of Vindheim.
War prep is in full swing! Check your authorizations, check your
armor and weapons, check your garb, and make repairs. March is
just around the corner! We are so looking forward to representing
this great Principality at war and can’t wait to fight with you, sit
around the camp fire with you and tell stories, and recognize even
more deserving members of the populace.
The Spring eventing season looks to be busy with the Medieval Fair
demo happening shortly after we return from war. Please plan to
attend this event if you can. It is the largest demo opportunity in
the Principality, and we can use all hands on deck to make it
successful. In April, we will also be attending Wiesenfeuer Baronial
and Namron Beltane. Both look to be great fun, and we look
forward to seeing all of you there!
In closing, keep being awesome Vindheim! We have no doubt that
you will!
Yours,
Micauley and Caterina
Prince and Princess of Vindheim

Greetings, All!
Gulf Wars was so epic!
We had a great time! Thank you to everyone who took the time to
serve on entourage for us, help move things on logistics for us, etc.
And thank you to all who fought on the rapier and chivalric fields,
went and shot archery, went and participated in thrown weapons,
taught arts and sciences classes, and donated your precious
vacation time volunteering to ensure that the rest of us got to enjoy
the war. We are so proud of all of you!
The Spring eventing season looks to be busy with Medieval Fair
happening soon! Please plan to attend this event if you can. It is the
largest demo opportunity in the Principality, and we can use all
hands on deck to make it successful.
In April we will also be attending Wiesenfeuer Baronial and Namron
Beltane. Both look to be great fun, and we look forward to seeing all
of you there and recognizing all the amazing things that you all do!
Plans are also in the works for us to attend Lilies War in Calontir
June 11-15. So, if you had a great time at Gulf War and can’t wait to
attend another war, come join us! We’d love to have lots of folks
from the Principality attend with us.
Yours,
Micauley and Caterina
Prince and Princess of Vindheim

Greetings, All!
The month of April was an excellent launching point for all the
excitement of Spring and Summer in Vindheim. The Medieval Fair is
always an incredible time, fun and exciting and one of the very best
ways to invite new people into falling in love with this Society that
so many of us already have. The Barony of Namron has certainly
had an exciting month, capping us off with Beltane and all the joy
that comes with it! And let’s not forget Wiesenfeuer Baronial and
the amazing time we got to have in the Barony of Fire! These last
few weeks have been exceptional in so many ways and we wanted
to thank everyone who played a hand in making them so great!
Looking forward, May is going to be a jam packed month, with Her
Highness attending Adlersruhe’s Passa de Arms, His Highness
attending Elfsea’s Defender, Both attending Northkeep’s Castellan,
and all the excitement that comes from Memorial Day weekend as
well, with Ansteorra celebrating Steppe’s Warlord and our Calontir
brethren in Vatavia hosting Valor, this month is packed to the brim
with excitement and fun.
Out at Beltane, His Highness Micauley was approached by a friend
from the southern part of the Kingdom who had made the long trip
to see what Vindheim events can be like, they made the comment,
“Up here, you guys really love each other, and you know how to
have fun!” and there could be no better words to sum up what it
feels like at an event in our beloved Principality. So please, continue
to love each other loudly, and have fun.
Yours,
Micauley and Caterina
Prince and Princess of Vindheim

Greetings, All!
It saddens us that this is the last missive we will write as
Prince and Princess.
It has been the most wonderful experience being your
Coronet for the last six months. You, the populace of
Vindheim, have shown us so much love and support. It
has been our extreme pleasure to get to recognize all of
the wonderful things that you do.
We look forward to supporting the next Prince and
Princess and continuing to support our amazing
Principality.

Greetings To The Glorious Populace of Vindheim!
Last weekend was a whirlwind. Thank you to everyone that
worked diligently to make coronet tourney a success. We would
like to thank Viscount Micauley and Viscountess Caterina for their
successful reign. We are so excited to serve the populace as your
newest Prince and Princess and for what the next six months hold.
Our first event as Prince and Princess will be King’s College which
will be held in the barony of Wiesenfeuer on July 8th. We
encourage everyone to consider attending this kingdom event
being held in our principality. It will have more than 60 classes
that will touch on all aspects of the SCA.
We will soon have our full progress updated on the Kingdom and
Vindheim calendars. We will be attending Pennsic for war week
and are excited to see many of you there.
We would like to continue a practice started by our honored
ancestors Jean Paul I & Gilyan I. As it is looking to be another
scorching season, it is the perfect time to work on indoor projects
as you plan for for Pennsic, War of the Rams (aka BAM aka Fred),
or Gulf Wars! We would like to propose a Principality wide work
week of July 23. On one day that week, we encourage the populace
to gather as a group of friends, for your local A&S, or work on a
personal project to highlight your love and pride for our
principality with the Vindheim colors and populace badges. Think
of how you want to represent Vindheim on the field at one of the
coming wars.
We are working our way through the current award
recommendations. Please keep them coming in! As we work through
the award recommendations already submitted, we encourage you to
continue to submit suggestions for citizens that bring glory to
Vindheim. If you see someone doing something that you believe
should be recognized, let us know! We rely on our populace to tell us
of worthy deeds through our online form.
Skeggi & Emmelina
Prince and Princess of Vindheim

Greetings To The Glorious Populace of Vindheim!
We march to war! Our August will begin standing alongside our Stellar Majesties and
their Royal Highnesses at Pennsic. We will be fighting for the honor of Vindheim and
Ansteorra. We look forward to bringing you word of great deeds after the battles are
fought. We are excited for all of the Vindheim populace that will be attending with us.
Thank you to the many populace that are remaining in Vindheim to guard and guide
these lands while we are gone.
A busy event season draws nigh. We have our progress up on the Kingdom and
Principality websites. After Pennsic our next event will be the Makers Faire demo in
Northkeep on August 26th and then his Sanguine Highness will be attending War of
Legends at the beginning of September.
We are excited for the premier Vindheim Thrown Weapons Tournament that will take
place at Mooneschadowe’s Trade Days in September. Look forward to a playful
tournament that will take into account the theme of the event.
Thank you to everyone that participated in the wide work week of July 23. It was
exciting to see some of your projects posted. We look forward to seeing our Principality
Pride on display at an event or war soon.
Recommendations! We need them! Please submit suggestions for your fellow populace
members that are doing good things! We need you as our eyes and ears. We encourage
each of you to turn in at least one award recommendation in the month of August.
