> Potential New Peerage Exploratory Committee
>
> Based on input from the Census results, as well as an examination of the breadth
> and depth of participation across the Known World and the unique subculture,
> ethos, and goals it has developed within the Society, the Board of Directors
> intends to explore the possibility of creating a new peerage to recognize as
> peers those participants who meet the general requirements for a patent of arms
> and who demonstrate prowess in Rapier / Cut and Thrust Combat. As this would
> potentially be the first additional peerage for the SCA in many decades, input
> and feedback from the Known World throughout the exploratory process is
> essential.
>
> The SCA?s Board of Directors is seeking individuals interested in participating
> in an Exploratory Committee focused on developing a set of options for potential
> implementation of a new peerage for Rapier Combat and/or Cut and Thrust Combat.
> This committee would be responsible for developing sets of recommendations for
> heraldry, regalia, corpora changes and identifying and addressing associated
> issues around creating and implementing such a peerage, and would consist of
> representatives of the following categories:
> ? One recognized Rapier Fencer or Rapier Fencing Official
> ? One recognized C&T Fencer or C&T Fencing Official
> ? One Fencing Laurel (recognized for Fence)
> ? One Fencing Pelican (recognized for Fence)
> ? One Fencing Knight/Master at Arms
> ? Two Heralds
> ? One Non-Fencing Pelican
> ? One Non-Fencing Laurel
> ? One Non-Fencing Knight/Master at Arms
> ? One Lady of the Rose
> ? One expert in Corpora (e.g., Seneschal)
> ? One SCA Archivist or Historian
>
> Please submit Letters of Intent by July 1st, 2012 and identify to which of the
> above categories you are specifically applying. Those individuals who have
> expressed interest already via the Comments email address or the Directors email
> address will be considered.
> Hard copies of resumes (both professional and SCA related, including offices
> held and honors) must be sent to the attention of The Board of Directors, SCA,
> Inc., P.O. Box 360789, Milpitas, CA 95036-0789. Electronic courtesy copies
> should also be sent to [peerageexploratorycommittee at sca.org]
> peerageexploratorycommittee at sca.org and resumes at sca.org.
>
>
> The exploration into a new stand-alone Peerage for Rapier / Cut and Thrust is
> driven not only by what the Board of Directors perceives to be a very high level
> of support across the organization, but also because it expresses a defined and
> specific culture that is unique and separate from chivalric armoured combat,
> other martial arts, and the unique and separate cultures of the Arts and
> Sciences and Service communities.
>
> The results of this Exploratory Committee, along with comments from the populace
> about those results, will then be reviewed by a much larger and more
> representative Review Committee. The Review Committee will be established later
> by the Board of Directors and will be comprised of representatives selected by
> the relevant groups and organizations within and across the Society (e.g., the
> Kingdoms, Peerages, Heralds, Seneschals, Grand Council, Rapier Fencing
> Community, and C&T Fencing Community) as a final input into the process. The
> Board will be working with those organizations to request their nominees
> following the formation of the Exploratory Committee. The Board welcomes all
> commentary throughout this exploratory process from the populace at large.
> Please send commentary to [Comments at sca.org] Comments at sca.org and include
> Potential New Peerage in the subject line.
