| '''SCA History'''
| |
| While in high school in the mid '80s, there were rumors that one of the science teachers did this "Robin Hood thing" in the summers. In 1987, Olwen was invited to a meeting of the Canton of Vest Yorvik and she was hooked. She stayed in Ealdormere from 1987 until 1993 when she moved to Atlantia and the Barony of Marinus. After a brief sojourn in the Kingdom of the West (the Palatine Barony of the Far West), she and her family returned to Atlantia, but this time to the Stronghold of Raven's Cove. Olwen holds a Bachelor's of SCA Studies and a Master's of SCA Studies from the University of Atlantia and is also a Fellow of the University.
