The Legends Luncheon was an effort by the Ansteorra Wiki to celebrate the efforts of those who have been a part of Ansteorra for more than twenty years. It was hosted at the Ansteorra 40th Anniversary event, held in September 2019, at Will Rogers Boy Scout Camp. The goal was a graceful, relaxed environment in which those who had been a part of the Kingdom for decades could take sustenance and be entertained and appreciated.

Invitation

“Greetings, Ansteorra!

Did you begin participating in the SCA when Ansteorra was still under the banner of Atenveldt? Do you remember the days of Principality? Did you start your Ansteorra Adventure prior to 1994? Then this message is for you.

The Ansteorra History Wiki would like to show honor to our “Living Legends” and is sponsoring a luncheon at 40th Year on Friday the 20th from 11:30 – 12:30, specifically for you. Reservations are limited to the first 40 people to register. Please only register if you are firm in your plans for 40th Year attendance.

This will be a time to reconnect and catch up with friends, and share your stories and anecdotes of decades past, while savoring a delicious meal and tempting desserts. Entertainment will be provided.

The current menu (while subject to change due to ingredient availability) includes:
- First Course: Tabouli served with pita, and a fruit and cheese plate.

- Second Course: Bacon and cheese quiche with herbs, and a garden salad with or without chicken as is your pleasure (Please note that due to the expected heat of the day, the quiche will be served chilled, rather than hot.)

- Third Course: Assorted pastries and confections. Please note some desserts may contain trace amounts of alcohol.

This luncheon is free of charge to attendees (it has been sponsored by private donations; no Kingdom funds are being used.) If attending, please bring your feast gear.

To register, please email your mundane name, year you began participating in what is now the Kingdom of Ansteorra, SCA name, and the most formal set of titles for introductions, along with any major dietary restrictions, to LegendsLunch@gmail.com. Reservations should be received no later than September 6th. Should you have any additional questions regarding the event itself, please feel free to contact me privately."

Entertainment

- Soloist: Elspeth Bhorúma inghean Bhrian: performed an original composition titled “Love Lost.”
- Duet: Donnchadh Beag mac Griogair & Andrew Turnbull: performed two traditional pieces – “River” and “Fields of Glory.”
- Recitation: The Historian Emeritus, Annes Clotilde von Bamburg (Attendee) performed "Forget not your Heroes," an original work.

There were additional spontaneous performances that day, including: Adalia von dem Burg - "Just One Time."

Attendees

While 38 individuals made reservations, a number were not able to attend, due to changes in plans or travel taking longer than expected.
