Subject: [Announcements] Additional Peerage Exploratory Committee (“APEC”)
To: announcements at lists.sca.org


 At the July 2013 Board Meeting, the Additional Peerage Exploratory
Committee (“APEC”) proposed that the Board of Directors create a new
Patent-bearing Peerage Order parallel to the Orders of the Chivalry, the
Laurel and the Pelican. This Rapier Peerage would be for the related
martial arts of rapier and all forms of cut & thrust in the SCA.



As announced in the Board’s original call for nominations to the APEC in
March 2012, the APEC’s report is now published to the membership for
comment. To access the APEC report, you may click on this
link<http://sca.org/BOD/announcements/APECProposal.pdf>or go to
http://sca.org/BOD/announcements/APECProposal.pdf. The commentary period is
open until December 15, 2013.



Once the commentary period has expired, a larger and more representative
Review Committee will then review the APEC’s proposal and all comments
received from the membership on the proposal. The Review Committee will be
established by the Board 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 work with the Kingdoms, the College of Heralds, the
Seneschallate and the Grand Council to request their nominees to the Review
Committee. The Board now solicits letters of intent from individuals
willing to serve on the Review Committee as representatives of the Orders
of the Chivalry, the Laurel and the Pelican, the Rapier Fencing Community
and the Cut and Thrust Fencing Community. 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 and resumes at sca.org.



The Board welcomes all commentary throughout this exploratory process from
the populace at large. Please send commentary to Comments at sca.org and
include "Potential New Peerage" in the subject line.


Comments are strongly encouraged and can be sent to:
SCA Inc.
Box 360789
Milpitas,  CA 95036

You may also email comments at lists.sca.org.
