Some of the Activities that we do can be done through the different Orders within the SCA. You do not ever have to follow an Order, but you can if you like this idea! Some people may do this for a sense of accomplishment as they work their way up the ladder, or some may find it easier to focus on what any one area means by pursuing that path.
On the Orders page you can learn all about these. There are Knights, Pelicans, and Laurels. And respectively, these orders follow the activities of Chivalry, Service, and A&S. But you don't have to be a Knight to practice fighting/make armor/go to war, a Pelican to do service work like cooking/planning and coordinating/creating regalia, or a Laurel to do an A&S project/take a class/teach a class, just to name a few things!
