Tournament of Daffodils Recap

The Tournament of the Daffodils was an absolute delight! The weather couldn’t have been more perfect for bouts of fighting, fencing, and all-around fun. Angelica and I were beaming with pride as we watched our fighters shine brightly, demonstrating teamwork and camaraderie that others should aspire to emulate.

There’s truly no greater joy than witnessing the people of Ostgardr receive recognition for their remarkable achievements.

Heartfelt congratulations to Drasma Dragomira for her induction into the Order of the Silver Tyger, and to Caitlin Straquhin for her well-deserved induction into the Order of the Silver Brooch!

Let’s continue to celebrate the spirit and excellence within our SCA community, inspiring one another to reach even greater heights!

Vivat!!

Angelica and Sofya
Vicereines, Crown Province of Ostgardr
