Baronial Champs Galleria Mall

Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Bog three day event has been cancelled this year. In its place, on July 12, we will host a demonstration at the Galleria in Johnstown.  We wanted to approach this demo a bit differently and decided to hold our annual Baronial Champions competition as the demo--complete with the usual heavy weapons, fencing, combat archery, and thrown weapons tournaments as well as an extensive A&S display to include some “hands-on” experience for the public. This demo will be held outdoors behind the mall in a large, grassy area. There will be a list field for tourneys, and pavilions which will host A&S displays. We will also have a small indoor set up on the first floor of the Galleria where we will run videos of Pennsic and show some of our A&S creations and let the public know that we are holding an event outside throughout the day. In case of inclement weather, the entire demonstration will be brought indoors to the first floor area where we will set up a pavilion and list area for the tourneys and the complete A&S display.

 

This event/demo is FREE. It will be held at the Galleria at Johnstown, 500 Galleria Drive, Johnstown, PA 15904. We would like to invite anyone who is interested to come by and spend the day with us as we promote the SCA the best way we know how, with fighting and fencing and displays of our arts. Marshalls will be available to do authorizations—last chance before Pennsic!

 

The autocrat for this event/demo is Dame Vivienne Marie de Beauvais, Baroness of St. Swithin’s Bog (Pamela Faint, 136 Strayer St., Johnstown, PA 15906, 814-535-6394 no calls after 10 pm, ladyviv@atlanticbb.net).

 

DIRECTIONS:  Make your best way to Rt. 219.  From the North, go south on 219 and exit via the Galleria Drive Exit. At the light, turn left. At the second light, continue straight getting into the left hand lane. At the third light, make the turn up to the Galleria parking lot proper, staying in the left lane. At the stop sign, turn left and take the road running around the back of the mall. From the East, West, and South, go north on 219 and exit at the Galleria Drive Exit. Stay in the right lane and at the light, turn right and merge into the left lane. At the next light, make the turn up to the Galleria parking lot proper, staying in the left lane. At the stop sign, turn left and take the road running around the back of the mall. If the weather is inclement, find your best parking space between BonTon and Pennys and enter the mall between the Italian Oven and DingBats restaurants. This will bring you in on the second floor of the mall. Go straight to the railing ahead of you and look down. We will be located on the first floor. The stairs and elevator are right nearby for easy access.
