Welcome to the Home page for the Province of Golden Rivers! The Province encompasses a large portion of the Sacramento, CA area and has been a thriving group in the Kingdom of the West since the beginnings of the S.C.A.!
There are a lot of things going on in our Province! We have weekly fighter practice/ gather in Carmichael Park (5750 Grant Ave, Carmichael CA 95608), on Wednesdays starting around 6:30 and going until late. At these gatherings, you can watch our fighters practice and learn more about the art, see dancers having fun and perhaps join in, get information from our chatelaine (our “welcome wagon”), socialize with folks and get to know them, and much more. Our monthly Province business meetings are the 3rd Wednesday of each month in the same park, weather permitting. There is also a monthly Equestrian practice details can be found under classes.
In this site, you’ll find information on local events, as well as events throughout the Kingdom of the West . You can find out who the local officers are and what their jobs are. You can find links to help you get started on garb, finding a name/device, cooking a period dish, and more. Keep posted for updates!

Besides Many of the local activities, we are ust around the corner from March Crown, and next month, La Prova Dura. Come! Join us as we make ready to celebrate the determination of our next King and Queen! Witness the Grandeur of Heralds stepping forward to extol the prowess of the Mighty Fighters, ready to endure a day upon the field! The populace of Golden Rivers will not only be attending these events, nut I am certain many of us will also be helping out with these events. I look forward to seeing you all there.

Greetings to the Wonderful Folks of Golden Rivers,
The Summer Season continues, in spite of the fact that we now enter the month of September. I simply can not stress enough to all of you to continue taking precautions against the heat and the strong sun. No doubt we are all very familiar with that old phrase; "Hydrate or die!" It would trouble me (and many others) greatly, to see one of us need medical attention due to the heat.
I will continue to host Scribal activities at my home, so feel free to drop in and bring something you want to work on! If you're unsure of what to do, we have plenty of ideas for you to try out. (And it's a GREAT way to relax and beat the heat!)
In friendship and Service,

Greetings Golden Rivers!
I am pleased to be your new Chatelaine. Lady Duibheasa did a splendid job and I am hoping to serve you as well as she. Please let me know if you need anything or have any question.s I may not know the answer but I can help you find it!! One of my projects is gathering feast gear for newcomers. IF you have any dishes, baskets, or fabric napkins that you no longer need, please pass them on to me. I will put together baskets for those who need them at our next feast.
I hope everyone has an enjoyable September. Please remember that even though fall is almost here, it's still summer -- so please stay hydrated and use the sunscreen! We all need to look after each other to make sure we stay well in this heat.
Best regards, Emma Westbrook
