About Membership in the SCA

There are several levels of membership in the Society: a Sustaining membership ($37) includes a year's subscription to your kingdom's newsletter, which contains kingdom news, announcements for events taking place in your area, and local group contacts. Lower-priced Associate and Family memberships are also available.

You are not required to purchase an SCA membership before attending SCA meetings and events. Membership is a requirement for holding office in SCA groups, for participation in combat and combat-related activities in some kingdoms, and for eligibility to receive awards in some kingdoms.

Benefits of Membership

• Membership card - by signing the waiver on the membership application, you can speed your check-in at events by presenting your card instead of signing waivers at the door.
• SCA Publications - Sustaining members receive their kingdom's newsletter. Sustaining members can also purchase subscriptions to other kingdoms' newsletters, Tournaments Illuminated (the quarterly magazine of the Society), the Compleat Anachronist monograph series, and the Board of Directors' Proceedings.
• Discounts on some event admissions
• Voting privileges in your local group - the membership rolls are used when determining to whom to send pollings on group matters.
